About what total distance was the weight moved forward when you made the two revolutions to get that great group? About how many small moves did you make during the two revolutions? 10 moves or 4 moves?? Trying to get an idea of how sensitive the "optimum" weight location is. Thanks for your work and sharing the data.

You'd need to ask Guy what the calibration of the thread is, however I expect its a 1mm thread pitch as it was about 2mm out from fully home.

At first I just rotated it one complete turn at a time, obviously two turns were good, three turns then showed separation again. I then went back to 2.5 turns then 2.25, 2.00, and 1.75.

2 turns out was clearly the best. As kevin has pointed out there may be more nodes further out, and I'll probably test more at 50m where decimal scores are more senitive, but for 25 yards this was more than acceptable. I didnt feel the need to get down to 0.1 of a revolution either.

Hope this helps,
