I am relatively new to hunting. I have read all the opinions that have been given on the difference between .001,.003 and .006 for hunting. My question is when practicing will I be able to tell the difference in grouping at 20 and 30 yards when using the .003 as opposed to the .006? Is it the feeling that if we are hunting just as long as we hit in the killing zone some place we do'nt worry about grouping when we practice. When I am practicing I always try to group as tight as I can aka aim small hit small. When practicing with the .006 am I wasting my time trying to get them to group next to each other or should I have the paper plate mentality aka just as long as it hits somwhere on the paper plate it is acceptable. Even if hunting while practicing and wanting tight groups should I go with the .003? Sorry about the rambling but I love shooting and even practicing and want to be the best I can be.
