Are you holding the diamond square to the mouth of the scope and viewing into defused light.

Why not publish the dimensions you used to determine the HCA score and let the lads give you an opinion.

I viewed the stone at the mouth of the Ideal Scope. I did observe the stone with a more defused light.

The culet is not a wagon wheel with pink spoke now, though it is a pale pink compared to the rest of the stone.

The symmentry (arrows) are perfect (dark grey to black )

When I have the symmentry lined up perfectly I notice some white in a couple spot around the inside edge of the table. When I tild the stone slightly no white is visable however the symmentry or (arrows are not pronounced.

If you haven't already, you might try comparing your image with those posted as examples under the idealscope section at the top of your screen.
