Did Sierra shoot the 500-shot group over an Oehler M43 with acoustic target at 300-m or some similar equipment?

If so, I would love to have the bullet hole coordinate data for each bullet, obtained by an M43 with acoustic target. I would be willing to pay for that information or do some work for the customer who paid for that test.

300 meters = 328.084 yards

Group of 2.823 divided by 3.28084= .860″ at 100 yards unless using 1 MOA =1.047″

Be even more interesting if they had electronic monitoring and could tell how the group size change with time and number of rounds.

I wonder what load was used?

Also, it would be instructive the see the growth of the group (running group size average) with every 5th shot. This may give an idea of how valid 5 shot groups are.

If I figured it right that equates to about 3/4 inch at 100yds. is that within Sierra’s standards?
