[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 1877260, member: 7"] You are incorrect in your statement. The world record group, set in 1973 (0.009") was set with neck sized cases. It took nearly a half a century to break it. The new record is 0.007"... It was broken with cases that were neck sized. Currently, most bench rest shooting is done for "score", not "group" size. Score rifles do not need that high a level of accuracy. For a rifle to shoot a perfect score (250-25x), it needs to be capable of 0.30", which would be laughed off of any "group" match competition. Score matchs are shot with cases that are FL sized, cuz the matches are often shot very fast - with shots being fired every 3 or 4 seconds... so the cases must fit loosely. It has nothing to do with pure accuracy (or "lint"). There is no need to push a shoulder back like this shooter did - all that space leads to case stretch and eventually, head separation. [/QUOTE]
