[QUOTE="JEVapa, post: 3975390, member: 41176"] You could tighten them up but I doubt you'll see it at 100, maybe 800. Measure edges, and you definitely won't; measure centers and you will. Measure the centers on your steel at 800 each time you shoot a group. Measure in the vertical, not horizontal no matter what the temptation is. What I should have also said in that post, is if you are measuring groups for data, measure centers. Edge to edge is usually for comps and touching the next higher scoring ring and such. (800) Do it on a clean target with fresh paint. Shoot five and go down and measure. No more than five and no less. Three is out right...just like the holy hand grenade. Repeat as necessary. If you're shooting sub half MOA, you, your gun, and your ammo as a system, is better than most. Companies sell their $3000 guns as Sub Half MOA to people who can't shoot 3MOA...you should happy with whatever it is you're doing.. [/QUOTE]
