I have an H&R 223 Ultra heavy barrel gun. It WILL do 5-shot 1-inch groups with reloads at 100 yards with a 32X scope, but not always. It shoots best after 5 or 6 fouling shots. Ipopped a crow at 120 yards from a deer stand with it. And no, I was not hunting deer with it. I had my 30-06 there for that. These guns usually take about 200 shots to break them in. The trigger is heavy, but has no creep. I enjoy shooting it. People at the gun range are amazed that it shoots as well as it does. Now, my 243 and 25-06 don't shoot as well, but I have not played with them as much.
