Abstract: A steel sheet has a specified chemical composition and a specified steel microstructure. An average grain size of ferrite and/or bainitic ferrite is 7.0 ?m or less. On the basis of a distribution in the width direction of the steel sheet, a ratio of a deviation of the grain size of the ferrite and/or the bainitic ferrite to the average grain size of the ferrite and/or the bainitic ferrite is 10% or less. On the basis of a distribution in the width direction of the steel sheet, a ratio of a deviation of the area fraction of as-quenched martensite to the area fraction of the as-quenched martensite is 10% or less. On the basis of a distribution in the width direction of the steel sheet, a ratio of a deviation of the area fraction of retained austenite to the area fraction of the retained austenite is 10% or less.
