[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 34007, member: 1"] Ok, here's a can of worms for you. We all mention our group sizes from time to time in our postings here at LRH.com. It is a common way to describe and benchmark the accuracy of a rifle or of a particular load. When you read about John Smith's 1/2 moa group with his new .368 Whizzenboomer rifle...how many shots do you assume he is shooting in that group? John usually doesn't mention this number, by the way, and there is a significant statistical difference in accuracy or precision depending on the number of shots use. So...how many shots do you assume? [ 06-14-2004: Message edited by: Len Backus ] [/QUOTE]
