Most rifles with good barrel. will shoot one inch or less when you find thats rifle best load. You can spend a lot of time and ammo finding that load and a good trigger is very important. Not all rifles will do it but some of us as already mentioned, don't keep those rifles around. Now, Am I capable every day of shooting one inch or less groups? NO, NO, NO. There are days that I try a few shots and just put the gun away. If I am shooting well, then its a good day to measure groups.


A One inch rifle however with a good shooter behind it, should be able to do it all the time if the ammo and weather is consistent.

If I can cover three shots with a poker chip, thats good hunting accuracy for the ranges I hunt which seldom exceeds 250 yards.
