DOGE should have a serious look into the old FAG's financials. I'd say with near certainty that old mate is a crooked as they come.
I'm not invalidating your analysis. I said you are not shooting a 25 shot group, you shooting your card. You have to hold for your conditions. your analysis is good. That is the score shooting. I'm a long range steel shooter I hold for wind all the time. I go for hit %I don't see how that invalidates my group analysis. I of course don't hold center for every shot ... that would be a weather report, not an assessment of system precision and accuracy.
This is a picture the military has never let anyone see until now.
This is a picture behind the scenes at Dover Air Force Base where the bodies of fallen soldiers are prepared for burial.
And that includes being properly dressed, all the way down to the smallest detail.
In this picture Staff Sgt. Miguel Deynes is making sure the uniform is just right for an army pilot recently killed in Afghanistan.
There is a very specific process once a fallen soldier is returned home.
The bodies are flown back to the U.S. on a cargo jet.
A team of service members wearing white gloves carries the coffins, covered with flags, to a white van that takes them to the Armed Forces Medical Examiner.
The remains are washed, the hands are scrubbed clean, and the hair is shampooed. If necessary bones are wired together and damaged tissue is reconstructed with flesh-toned wax.
Sometimes they will use photos, sometimes just intuition to recreate the wrinkles in faces, and the lines around the mouth or the corner of the eyes.
“It has to look normal, like someone who is sleeping.”
Once the body is ready then the uniform is prepared.
That includes putting medals in the proper order on the ribbon rack above the jacket’s breast pocket.
During the height of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan 10 to 20 bodies were arriving every day.
The embalmers often worked all night to get the bodies home on time. That can take an emotional toll so the mortuary has a large gym so workers can blow off steam.
Many say they are haunted by how young the fallen soldiers are, and by how many of them leave behind small children.
That’s why Sgt. Deynes says they are advised not to do research into the backgrounds of the soldiers.
“If I knew the story of every individual who went through here, I would probably be in a padded cell.”
The dress uniform being prepared in this particular case will be in a closed casket.
Even so, it will be perfectly tailored, starched and pressed. Everything will be checked down to the last detail.
Sgt. Deynes says, “They’re (the family) not going to see it. I do it for myself. It’s more than an honor it’s a blessing to dress that soldier for the last time.”
NEVER FORGET!

Same. I've shot a lot of groups where 3-4 of them look great and the 1-2 outliers make me think it's a trash group. Then I'm pleasantly surprised when it's still a .8" group.
I think 7 twist originally caught on because "mil-spec bro!" and then hung around because the general consensus is that faster twist is needed for heavier bullets and heavier bullets tend to be match bullets that are more accurate. So people took that to mean faster twist=better accuracy.
Obviously it's not quite that simple, but given how retarded most people on arfcom or reddit are it's no wonder that this stuff is so prevalent.
Not saying 7 twist is bad, but given the bullet weights you can fit in an AR mag in 223/5.56 I find 7 twist to have no advantages and potential for some disadvantages.
I don't just shoot a 5 shot group, I shoot many. You say your gun averages in the low .3's at 50 yds and 5 shot ranging .15" to .45" . Average is an AGG. Just like I am doing. Now that is funny.We’ve been through this lol….. 5 shot groups vary in quite a bit. What some people say is a flyer is just a round within the actual dispersion population. This is why you can’t trust doing tuner testing or lot testing or even setting a zero with just 5 shots. Unless of course you overlay multiple groups to a larger aggregate. My guns that average in the low .3s at 50 will print 5 shot groups ranging from a ~.15 to a ~.45.

Are you still breaking the barrel in? If not how many shots did it take before shot velocity settled down? I just ordered a RTR chambered in 223 so im curious
