    All the groups seem to be more or less in the same vertical plane.
    What gap between loads (as a percentage of load) ? 1% or 0.7% ?

    Did you shoot left to right, top row first and then bottom in order of increasing loads ?

    1% of my max minus 10% and it goes around in a reverse 'C' bottom left first. I didn't understand if it was 1% of the max minus 10% or 1% of the last load.

    I go with +1% on the previous load. As long as the gap is relatively small should not make a difference. All you are looking for in the first round really is a climb as the load increases, and then where the movement minimises.

    Your target makes a lot more sense with that reverse C order

    Looks good mate.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Congratulations Thomas. The first of many I am sure. Expect VC to congratulate you on your choice of calibre.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
