    How many feet/yards out? That will let me know if I should say nice grouping! ;)

    That's a nice looking piece of machinery. Where'd you get it?

    PURCHASED FROM A LOCAL DEALER FRIEND.
    THE TARGET WAS SHOT FROM ABOUT 20 FT OUT.

    20 Ft, grouping of four shots within what seems to be 3.5 inches. Not bad MH. Great looking piece by the way.

    As a non-lover of guns, I'll say: that thing is *awesome*
