You know, I've often wondered about the problem of group measurement. And I do use the method above for it's simplicity. Looking at M2's second target, there's a flyer from shooter error, but there's another that fell a bit low from the group which is used in the measurement. More importantly, there are 5 shots that are within about 1" each other. I've often wondered if it would be better to view the measurement as a center of mass problem. Set up an x-y axis on the target, measure the coordinates of each shot and calculate the "center of mass" of the group (set the mass of each hole to 1 for the calculation). Then measure the distance from the center of mass of each shot. Take the average of the distances for a "tightness" measurement of the group. The tighter the group the smaller the number and flyer or two won't have as large an impact.
