Please remember that benchrest record groups are the smallest ones fired by some rifle. The other hundreds of groups it shot in matches are larger; several times larger. If that one's holder has other records to his credit with the same rifle and cartridge, that's good. Otherwise, its luck.I just remembered: the 1000yd record was set by a 6mm dasher.
The guy who holds the 100 yard 5-shot record of .0077" shot with a 30 PPC holds no other records.
Best records to judge accuracy are aggregates consisting of several 10-shot groups' average. Then multiply its size by 1.6 to get an approximate size of a group where all groups shots went into. Their centers are not all are the same place relative to point of aim. Current agg's at 1000 yards for 6 and 10 groups are therefore in about the 6 to 8 inch range. Current 5-shot group record's about 1.4 inch; its holder has no others.
