[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 567990, member: 5302"] I don't think so. 'Tain't none established at 500 yards as far as I know. And no mention of it being shot in a sanctioned IBS or NBRSA or other organization' tournaments. Over the years, a few folks have shot long range groups testing rifles normally fired hand-held off the shoiulder and their ammo for ammo that are smaller than current benchrest records. I've done that myself, but have made no claim, nor has anyone else, that they are "records." Sierra Bullets has shot test groups in their indoor 100 and 200 yard test ranges that are benchrest record beaters. I'm not a fan of tiny, few-shot group records. They are at the statistically lucky end of the size spectrum. And very few, if any, rifle barrels and lots of ammo ever equal them again. The "tiny group" crowd has few folks who remember what the largest group fired was. Too bad as that's what they and everyone can count on all the time. It's the best measure of accuracy there is because it's repeatable. [/QUOTE]
