I had a Sidelock years ago that shot a very tight group.Sold it and have been kicking myself every since.But I bought another just like it,have never shot a real tight group but I killed a Buck last season with Patch and Ball at 110 yards.

As far as Hunting accuracy too many put too much into a tight group for Whitetail hunting considering most of your shots will be on a fairly large target at less than a hundred yards.

I had a Shotgun I was going to use Deer hunting,but I had to take it and have it worked on before the season,got it back just couple days before the season,it was shooting a foot and half to the Left at 50 yards.I was very mad to say the least.There was nothing I could do but use the Gun or not go.Well I decided to use it.I went on to kill 5 Deer that season,all but one was one shot kills.

This is one of them
