I just got my first data book (Impact) and while I'm pretty confident I know how to enter in the data, one thing confuses me.
Before I got this book, when I would shoot for precision, (or at least that's what I call it) I've always printed out twelve, 1" black circles on a standard 8-1/2" by 11" sheet of paper then shot at that. Now this is as 100 yards since right now, that's all the further I can shoot at.
My groups are usually an inch or less, so what I do, is I shoot 5 or 6 shot groups at each circle. That way I can easily see where each shot hit on paper. If I were to shoot even 10 shot groups, I know I'd be shooting some in the same holes and may not know where they hit.
Now on the videos and instructions I've seen and read, on how to document your shots in your data book, the targets I've seen were all single POA targets, with boxes for 20 shots per page! I have a feeling if I shoot at one target 20 times at 100 yards, I'm not going to see all those hits as they'll go through some of the other holes.
I know at longer distances I should be fine, and maybe that's what these are for, but how do you guys do it at 100 yards. I'm fairly positive that most of you guys are way mo better shots than me!
