I think a really better thing would be to shoot one shot a day, for 20 days on the same target personally. Group size would go up again.

Not that its a bad thing, but the more folks understand there is a combo of things going on, weapon accuracy, shooter accuracy and conditions, at a minimum, it then SHOULD help them understand what max distance means. Or should mean, IMHO.

That said there is a certain part of getting a gun hot, to show if it has any trends, and the fact that the more you see a bughole develop the more nervous you can get, and thats a good thing to get away from too.

Its been years since I've shot enough to be competent, but the other day we had a gut pile out at 1383 yards I think it was, waiting on a grizz to take it over and I was totally convinced that prone I could make a shot from our vantage point. But we could get a lot closer easily so it would not have been, but if not shooting a lot and dont have the proof, the knowledge adn the skill, you don't have confidence then.IMHO
