I know this will start a controversy but that's not what I want.

I want to know what you guys consider a shot group from your muzzleloader. My belief is that it was the distance between the two farthest shots. How exactly do you measure it?

Another thing I wanna know is, "what if you get a 2 inch group and then flinch one and send it out 6 inches?" Would that be an 8 inch group? How do you guys judge yours? Also, do youshoot a certain number of times for your group? I normally use the same target for all of my shots. This could be as many as 30 at a time. As you all know, inmy case, I will probably shoot a 1 foot group. I might have gotten in some good shots, but there's always gonna be several bad ones that ruin the overall consistency when I'm shooting.

So, when I'm trying to get the best groups possible, do you recommend shooting a certain number of shots, and how would you measure the group? When you hear people say they shoot 2 inch groups, what does that normally say? That they can put three shots in a 2 inch circle?

Sorry, if it sounds like a pointless question. I thought it would be interesting to see if all people measured the same. Please, no crap. I didn't want to start anything. Any advice from the people I do believe to be the experts(you guys) would be great.
