What is a good group??

Post by micahbxd40 on Sat Nov 19, 2011 2:09 pm

I just went to a gun range for the first time today.
I'm wondering what a good group is.
The first 2 mags I shot at this target was a 3" (inside the 10) group at 30 FT is that good or crappy?

S.A. XD .40 4" service model
30'
3" group

Good group? That depends on what your using it for.. Glocks criteria is a group the size of a mans chest at 30feet. Personally looks like good shooting

I like my handguns to shoot under 2" at 25 yards from a sandbag.

It depends on you. For self defense ammo, I would want to be able to keep them all in the center of the chest or head. For competition, I'd like them more accurate.

From a standing position at 30ft? That would be a good group to me.

That's a good group.Especially for rapid fire at 30ft.
