Is it possible to program the system to show group size?
Good shooting - I ran the image through Ontarget and came up with .669 MOA with an extreme spread of 7.003 inches.

Here's a similar sized 8 shot group I shot at 1000 yards a couple of weeks ago with my trusty old Savage.

Damn, that's a nice group! What did you shoot it with?

Thanks everyone!

Yes I'm pleased with it too. I've been trying to move away from N550 as I understand it can burn out barrels fairly quickly, and the heat it generates from rapid firing (which I do) can cook the rounds.

The rifle is a Steel Core Cyclone, 26" barrel, 1:11 twist.

Now, does anyone know if the Intarso system can display group size (like the other system on Century does)? I asked at the Range Office but they didn't know.

Thanks for that. OnTarget looks like a useful program, so I tried to install it but it complains about me not having .NET Framework (even though I do ... kukkuk ).

PS Targetmaster is on my shopping list :good:
