I'd like to start by saying I do not and have never owned a TC product. I have had an opportunity to shoot and handle a couple through the years. None of those were great shooters with 1, a pro hunter in 30-06 that shoots horribly. That gun is owned by a close friend and will print 3" groups on a good day. I know I will probably get blasted for speaking negatively about someone's firearm but the reality is that a decent bolt gun will typically outperform in the accuracy category. TC has done a great job of creating a market for its products by paying dozens of TV hunters to use this line.
