Group measurements?

In the December issue of Precision Shooting magazine, page 100 are listed the results of a match at Bridgeville, Del. (600yds).
Some of the group sizes are measured to 5 decimal places, i.e. 3.05475. This has to be a mistake...right?

Group Measurements or Aggregate Measurements?...

Hi Mike...
I don't presently have the magazine in front of me, but I'm guessing that what you're seeing are aggregate measurements, not group measurements. The 600-Yard discipline bases their aggregate measurements on 4-group aggregates, so when the aggregates are calculated, they can end in .xxx0, or .xxx25, or .xxx5, or .xxx75. Typically, they are rounded to 4 places, but I'm guessing that in these results, the club gave the actual values, and in some cases, that ended up being 5 places.
 
Agg measurements

OK, I understand that makes sense. Thanks!
