    It shoots triangles!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    a rather bizarre thread from an Australian marlin owner who seems surprised that if you shoot a three round group, the holes can be connected with three lines!

    That's nothing,
    All my guns, regardless of make or caliber, can shoot POLYGONS if I shoot groups of more than 3 rounds!
    (No I don't shoot bench rest)

    Triangles and polygons.....shaw. Y'all get in line.

    When you can shoot Casiopia and the Big Dipper, you're up there with the BIG boys!

    I thought from the title that this was going to be about the defunct Tround.

    let him know if he changes the primers in those factory rounds he could shrink the groups probably by half.
    then he would have clover leafs instead of triangles.

    Heck, mine shoots one hole groups as long as I only fire one shot.

    I don't see triangles, I see planes. I suppose it all depends on the geometry of things.
