    I get what gimp is on about, although I don't understand the detail. I do know though that in statistics more is better. I relate to stuff that I know - for instance the theory of the wisdom of the...

    Three round groups have a place amongst the process in my opinion. Yes they don't tell you everything, but they can tell you some things that you don't need to burn more ammo to know.

    Using your post as an example, if we are talking about hunting which one of those shots didn't kill the animal you were aiming at ?

    There is a very good 3 and 5 shot group in this 10 shot group. Some days the first shots fired could be that 3 or 5 shot group clumped beautifully in the centre, other days they could be those shots...
