thompson says they guarantee 1" groups at 100 yards...is this the real McCoy or a selling technique.

I read on another forum that tc uses a computer program that shoots a laser through the barrel to test group size, so that is a worthy debate on if you believe it. I have seen a group printed by their warlord rifle, while it is pricey it does shoot every bit as good or better than they say.

I have an Icon Weathershield in 308 Winchester that came with the "test target" and showed a 3 shot group of .32"! I have yet to achieve that but my groups have been 2 to 3 times that size(still under an inch). I have not used the ammo that they tested the rifle with and my shooting rest could be better.

For that price on the Venture, I do not see how you could go wrong.
