Bullet holes are rarely full size, so you can't measure the outside of the group and subtract bullet diameter and expect an accurate answer.
Even if you could, look at the holes at 2 o'clock and 7 o'clock. They are nowhere near touching, so their centers can't be any closer than .264" as a lower bound. Exactly. Come on guys, this is what a 6mm rem 5 shot group @.306" looks like: ![[Linked Image]](http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x401/chiefbsa/008-27.jpg) The caliper doesn't lie 
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

When I read the title to this thread, I thought at first it had something to do with the 223 AI threads.  Now that I'm disappointed, I'll show you my ragged holes. I shot them yesterday. ![[Linked Image]](http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo236/rcamuglia/01383369-F1AA-4950-B34A-CB5A173CF3EB.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo236/rcamuglia/C8E9EC2B-2E97-47B1-A469-E1EE584D9748.jpg) New Bartlein medium Palma has almost 200 through it. Shooting well. Here's a ragged "hole" on paint at 660 yards. 3-shot ![[Linked Image]](http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo236/rcamuglia/274F18B1-D142-44EA-932C-85619E39B45D.jpg) Throw some calipers on those groups. For some reason they look bigger than what the red pen is letting on... Really good groups...... really get under your skin! Your insecurities are glaringly obvious...you need to lighten up! What's obvious here is you're an idiot. I'm sorry I pointed out the obvious and it's just too much for you to handle  . Math and reading a precision measuring instrument is out of your realm of abilities as well..

I could care less if he wrote down the wrong measurement on his target....you show up at every post that has pics of targets and continually call people out on their groups, trying to some how pad your ego ...maybe it's time to accept that someone might be better than you!

She is a better shot than most of these braggarts on the campfire. One fall she even shot an elk over 20 miles away from the living room...

The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

One time she shot a black bear from over 100 miles away. I haven't taught my wife to do that yet, but she has been shooting some pretty good groups at the range from about 25 miles away.

Actually a bit smaller group than I measured the first time. ![[Linked Image]](http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo236/rcamuglia/2B056EF5-64BF-4F67-A21F-BF1223A9A13A.jpg)

I can't believe you chose a .270 to shoot that group...............must have used the fancy new Berger VLD. I assume you shot from an improvised field position?
