It is actually tight now, but my comment was the any take-down will not be as tight at a solid frame. I have a 300 Savage in 99EG that shoots under 1" groups at 100 yards. I doubt it would do that if it was a take-down. My dad had a 99 perch-belly in .250, and it had a scope on it. Shot 6" groups off sand-bags at 100 yards.
