Group / Target Size

[Ejcb]

Guys,

Fired these groups at 1000 yards at Bisley - can anyone make clear the target / group size? 

[1066]

I believe the dotted squares are 1 moa (about 10.5") so at a guess the top group would be about 15" across and the lower one about18"

[SMLE]

My understanding too, the squares represent one moa.

If the vbull on a f class target is half a minute the the squares looks half a minute too

[Ejcb]

So squares either 1 or .5 MOA?

That's not an F Class target face, it's an NRA TR 1000 yard face - and the squares are 1 moa.

Thanks for the replies!

Yes, NRA TR target..On the other hand, your vertical is good at around .6moa so on a still day they would be quite tidy groups (depending on what equipment you're using.)

It was an out of the box 6.5 Creedmoor Bergara HMR shooting factory 140 ELD-M - off a Harris Bipod.

Didn’t try to adjust for wind just held centre and cracked on.

Whatever the square sizes, those are excellent vertical displacements

TR Long Range Target:  V = 14.4" diam.  Bull = 24" diam.

Nice shooting by the way.  Just under 1/2moa vertical and 2moa horizontal.

Will be interesting to knock up some loads for the rifle, ELD-M isn’t cheap ammo, but the rifle / ammo / bipod combination outperformed my expectations.

it was a good health check for my shooting, next time will try and adjust and hold for wind - although that will almost certainly mess things up spectacularly!

I'm developing a load for 308 178gn ELD-M.  I plan to go to Bisley and see what 1000yds group looks like!
