Hope I'm in the right place here....

I just bought a .223 Remington barrel for my T/C Pro-Hunter. Any thoughts as to what is fair to expect for accuracy? I'm going to set a Nikon 4.5-14X40 scope on it.... Using T/C's Maxima rings and scope base. I think it should be good to really good. Opinions please.

I think it would be fair to expect less than an inch group from a bench at 100 yards with most factory ammo. If you reload, should be able to shrink that by half.

That's pretty much what I'm hoping for. Thanks guys...
I'll let you know how I make out once I get my mitts on the scope.
