It's sort of strange I've read of a few others who claim their Tribute rifles give .5-1" groups. I've yet to get that. I'm no novice to the rifle. I've been shooting them since Uncle Sam placed an M14 in my hands back in 1966.

Maybe I am a bit anal about copper but I don't want it to build and build. Sooner or later accuracy will go to hell in a hurry. If getting the proverbial 1" group may require a little upward pressure at the fore end then that's what I'll do. It sure hasn't been a tack driver to date with that free floating barrel. Experimentation is in order, me thinks. If it gets worse I'll remove the paper and look elsewhere. Who knows, do you think it could really be me? I doubt it. I'm about as good as it gets. cool

Yesterday I took my 45-70 out to the range and got a four shot group that measure a hair over .5"...that's at 100 yards and iron sights using a 530 gr bullet and black powder. Tell me what's wrong with the 270.
