I shoot once, and if I hit the bull, I aim at the dirt and say one hole group.
so thats how 1 hole groups are done, I have never been able to shoot a 1 hole group much less shoot repeatable 1 hole groups but now with your advise I maybe able to
 
I meant to upload the targets last night. The upper left-hand corner (red circle) was the re-zero from when I transitioned from ZQI ammo to my reloads. The holes were almost on top of each other, and it was the lightest load in my ladder test (42.4gr). It was fairly windy the day of the test, but overall it's not a terrible group. The rest of that group, I believe, was the best of the bunch. I will work with this load more, and I bet I can get a nice cloverleaf. The closest I've gotten to a true cloverleaf was with IMR4064, but I'm still convinced I can get nice groups with Varget using the Hornady 150 FMJBT's.

After my next test with Sierra 200's, I want to try a 168 of some kind.

I didn't get 1 hole, but it will consistently hit 4 inch plates at 400 without wind.
