[QUOTE="justgoharder, post: 386685, member: 4793"] while 1.5-2" isn't amazing try to keep in mind a few things. #1 this is a website forum; People are always speaking of 1/4 moa groups all day everyday!!! truth is that it isn't as common as this forum makes it seem. How well can you shoot other rifles that already have an established moa range? #2 try not to get too sucked into needing the newest top of the line everything. There is most likely a lot of potential to be gained in your rifle with some basic reloading adjustments and some practice shooting with it. #3 before you throw down some big bucks on a new barrel, try bedding (or have a smith bed) the rifle as it is now. then see how it shoots. from my personal experience: the first 300 RUM i bought would shoot 1.5" groups, i thought it was just a crappy gun. but with some bedding, different reloads and MOSTLY some time with me actually learning how to shot it, the same gun will now shoot .75MOA out to 800yrds. not bad for a stock $500 remington [/QUOTE]
