    This 50 meter group is high - the sights were set for 100 meters.

    - from the RWS test range in Fürth, just in case some suspicious person doesn't believe the first two pics! However, please note that not just the type of ammo, but even the batch, can influence results. In the bottom test, all shots touch a 3mm circle at 50 meters.

    Conclusion:

    The Enfield No. 8 is the most accurate small-bore trainer ever, bar none!

    QED

    Now someone prove me wrong!
