Default RE: Standard Deviation

Ok, Standard Deviation and Mean Average Deviation are two distinctly different calculations. MAD is the average of shot to shot deviation compared to the overall average velocity. SD is a median average of deviation compared to the median average velocity. The calculation for each requires different steps to run the numbers used and the calculations are complex and recursive. In short - let the computer do it.
