????????
If I'm was gonna do that, I'd shoot at 25 and claim 100.
Crooked is crooked. That's what I was going to suggest.

When I do a re-barrel for a picky customer like BSA 1917 and Gnoahhh, I just moves the target in to about 6 yards, which avoids flame scorching the target. I can get some nice groups like that. lololololol There's no need to go to extravagant lengths to lie about accuracy.

I recall one company with provided test targets which included powder burns. Another provided targets which had obviously been cut with a paper cutter. All rifles, regardless of caliber, had the same size holes. GD

Kimber.....A decent example of whatever
MOA Standard......it holds no water and is hardly a guarantee
Plus
Their test range is 50 yards I think Cooper is 50 yards also.

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Wow. I just re-read what I posted. That didn't make a damned bit of sense. I need to refrain from posting when I'm tired. Please disregard what I posted. I promise, it made sense in my head!

I imagined you were actually talking about folding a target so the one round would create multiple holes. The targets I've received were all folded in the gun box, so the creases alone wouldn't be a giveaway.

I never give much credibility to some guy posting pictures of groups on here. Anyone can put a target out at say 25 yards and make any claim in the world.

If you want a good 3 shot group, shoot it at 10 feet.

It would be pretty easy. Just stack up three targets with the edges ever so slightly misaligned from each other. Shoot one bullet through the pile. Presto, a tiny “3 shot group” on the back one. Lol
Hammer down!
