A Really Nice 4 Shot Group :(

It was nice out today so I was itching to get out and do some shooting. Haven't done anything at 100 yds in a while so I went to a nearby farm that I have permission to shoot at to try to upgrade my rank. Started out shooting pellets loaded in the mag and was getting some really bad groups( was windy though). I was getting ready to pack it in for the day when I decided to try a few loading single shot. The first went a little low and a lot left but then the next 4 WOW. I was so excited I lost count and shot a 6th one which went low and right. I was able to shoot another target and the overall group was a little tighter but the shots were spread out more. I was getting ready to try again and it was getting ready to started raining.... bummer. No upgrade today, looks like I stay at Sharpshooter. I'll try again another day.
Amazing how the groups really tightened up loading the pellets individually.

Fine shooting. I'll definitely stick to hand loading for the shots that count.

Thanks everyone. I think there probably was a little luck involved also.
It's supposed to be 70 with a 3mph wind here tomorrow. I'll be heading out to the farmers field to try it again.
