All 5 went through it, the red dot is 3/4 of an inch. I normally put all 5 rounds inside the dot (@100), but never before or after such tight group. I was in 'the zone'; second time ever for me. First time was with a Sig 1911 .45 IMG_1694.jpg at 9 feet. I wish I could get into the 'zone' at will, but only happened twice and not at my command. I keep trying though.
