Thanks, I hadn't thought of that.
While this thread is not the place to post failed attempts at the challenge, the splatter targets are a problem as the grey lead smudge is not left on these targets. The problem with the target in question is not one round that would keep it from qualifying and is addressed here in post #2 https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/for...new-to-me-CZ45-17-HMR?p=17251453#post17251453

Nice shooting. I added you to the successful list.
There is some very fine shooting happening on this thread. I have been dormant for far too long.
On my last posted targets, I had too many holes, so could not qualify. No such issues here, lol.
Cleaned up the Suhl, and changed the optics on it to a 40X x 45mm Leupold Competition Series
with a 1/8 moa dot.
The rifle is a Suhl 150 Bench Rest, prepped by Jim Williams in the USA. Tuner is a Harrels, set at 300.
Trigger is original Suhl set at 2 oz. Factory Suhl barrel, recrowned, 1-16" twist.
Ammunition is Eley Match EPS [Black box] at 1059 fps.
I must say, really clear optics makes a huge difference. I could watch every round arc
to the target. Had a very nice early calm this morning, and I think you'll agree, the results
speak for themselves.
First Target:
Group 1 - .196"
Group 2 - .130"
Group 3 - .140"
Group 4 - .119"
Group 5 - .144"
Group average: .146"
Second Target:
Group 1 - .159"
Group 2 - .108"
Group 3 - .077" [Second best to date]
Group 4 - .111"
Group 5 - .137"
Group average: .119"

Interestingly, I took a chance on a case of that Eley Black Match made for Remington. Such a smoking deal, I had to try it.
Found a lot number at the same velocity [1059 fps] and from the same machine as my excellent lot of regular Match EPS.
Got lucky. The Remington marked stuff shoots exactly the same as the unmarked lot. Switching back and forth from one to
the other shows no perceptible difference. Dave.

Absolutely amazing shooting. Not only did you make the elusive 1/4” club (easily) you set the new record for smallest average.
