Here's something that people have a hard time understanding. Most people smile when sighting in their gun and they hit the bullseye. They dance a jig and call it good. You can increase your hit probability by not doing this.
Target #2 has a direct hit in the bullseye. This is an 1 1/2 group. I did four just to make it simple. The higher and lower impacts are 1 inch from the bullseye. The far left is 1 1/2 inches from the bullseye. So at the most you are 1 1/2 inches from your point of aim.
Now let go to target #1. No shot in the bullseye but no sweat. The gun is sighted in correctly. Why you ask? Because the point of aim is in the center of the group that the gun is capable of shooting. The group is 1 1/2 inches. All four shots are within 3/4 inch of your aiming point. Congratulations! You just turned your rifle that shoots 1 1/2 inch groups to one that will hit within 3/4 inch of your aiming point.
