Accuracy of copies in run being turned out (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

precision

'accuracy' is the definition.
(I know that precision is a type of exactitude)

'copies in run being turned out' is the wordplay.
'run' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'being turned out' indicates an anagram (turn out can mean to organise).
'copies'+'in'+'r'='copiesinr'
'copiesinr' with letters rearranged gives 'PRECISION'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for precision that I've seen before include "Meticulousness" , "Exactness, sharpness" , "Care" , "Accuracy, exactness" , "Exactitude" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
