    Gotta love gun nerds!! It certainly has been enlightening and given this has been bandied about in the gun world for years, good on Hornady for expending the barrels and ammo to shed some real data on the subject (and, of course, our posters as well) Back tracking this on the interweb, I found that as far back as the 1800’s, ten shot groups were the norm to average out accuracy, then slowly devolved to smaller and smaller lots over the decades. I’m sure there was some logical reasoning behind it.

    It’s certainly been fascinating, thank you.
