It is a function of how are the sights set, either iron or glass doesn't matter. Accurate means that the weapon is statistically hitting the bullseye.
Now precision has everything to do with the barrel, the bench, the wind the trigger.....everything. Precise means that statistically there is very little deviation between shots, in other words....tight groups.
Flame me or whatever, but please use the correct terms.
You are absolutely correct. I assumed that's what he was asking, knowing the difference. Well, now that you mentioned it, what are your thoughts?
