Also using ATC - the more shots in group, the more info on real accuracy potential from weapon/ammo/shooter combo.
When I was writing article for gun magazine in Poland on accuracy improvement from manual barrel crown cutting (using Stag as example) Best comparison came from ATC calculations. I used TargetCalc on this time to make calculations. Due to ammo supply problems I used 5 shot groups, shot only one group from each ammo before mod and one group after mod (no "best group hunting").
Results looked like that (@100m):
Sako Speedhead FMJ 50gr - ATC: 32mm -> 27mm, gain 15%
Barnaul FMJ-BT 62gr - ATC: 49mm -> 52mm, gain -7%
American Eagle FMJ 62gr - ATC: 30mm -> 30mm, gain 0%
Federal Gold Medal Match HPBT 77gr. - ATC: 18mm -> 13mm, gain 27%
Obviously best gain was on match grade ammo and high quality FMJ ammo.
