I think the rule of thumb is 1" for each 10 yds. 20yds=2" , 30yds=3" , etc, etc.

I average about 2" groups most of the time at 20 yds. They open up to 2.5 - 3" " at 30 yards and about 3.5 - 4" at 40 yards. However, when everything falls just right and I am " on" , nocks and fletchings magically dissapear at any of the above distances, but that doesn' t happen too often.

My " average" group for 25 yds would be somewhere between 2" - 3" .

Same here, 2-3 inches. (except for when the mosquitoes are out, then I would say 10-12 inches[X(][>:])

Inch or so. I only shoot three arrows at a target due to arrow damage. Take yesterday for example...25 yards at a deer target. First arrow in the heart. Second arrow is touching the right side of the shaft of arrow one. Third shaft Robinhoods the second arrow. [] Group size about 1/2 inch. I have dipped and crested carbon express, Terminator Hunter 4560' s. Way too much money in each arrow to ruin them.[>:] So far I haven' t pulled them apart but have pulled a part all the other ones cause of cost. We' ll see.

2" to 2 1/2" most days, sometimes a lot tighter, sometimes out to 3-3 1/2 inches.
