I can keep all of my guns inside 4-5" at 100 yards. I never shoot off of a bench really, just don't enjoy it as much. My favorites are my 45/70's, and once you learn to play the rainbow with them, they are one of the most accurate guns out there short and long range. Very predictable round I would assert. I shoot off of the ground, sitting, off-hand, all the shots that I would take in the field. I like to think of myself as a Quigley in the making!!.
