Smallest 100yrd 5 shot group

Very recently shot this with my AI AT-X. It has a 27" 1:8 Krieger chambered in 6GT. Just 5 shots again.

It absolutely loves the 105gr Hybrids. 3/8 or better with 3 different powders, but I have a ton of H4350 on hand and the ES and SD are best with that (10 and 3 are about the worst it's done).

I trued velocity at 655, and it is actually much closer to 2,860 (cheap chronograph). However that is about an inch of vertical for 5 shots.

Monday I was testing another load at 300 for a different 6.5x47L after I swapped stocks, and decided to shoot a group with the little 6GT again just for fun.

A 5 shot group that was witnessed and, silly me, forgot to have the witness sign it. Shot June 28, 1995.

A 3 shot group shot the same day.

The rifle is a Remington 700 Varmint, circa 1972, in .308. It now has over 9000 rds through it and will still do 0.25" 5 rd group IF I can do my part. Sadly I'm struggling to do my part - 75 now.
 
Shot these today with 284 Shehane while fire forming Lapua 6.5x284 brass. Berger 190gr hybrid, H4831SC @ 53.5gr, and touching the lands. 5 shot groups at 100’.
The best measured out to .36” with a .15 mean radius. The others are smaller than .50” but I didn’t measure them.
Rifle is a Barnard P, 31” Black Knight Accuracy barrel with a .317” no turn neck, Athlon Heras 15-60x56 scope.
