Tight groups are overrated when it comes to hunting rifles. Folks will get frustrated with a one inch gun yet revel in the .6 inch group their Tikka delivers. Most folks will hunt a lifetime and never encounter a situation where that .4 inch difference will ever be a factor. My favorite gun, the one I have killed more deer with, is a Ruger Ultralight 257 Roberts. I found a load that delivers 1.5 inch groups and quit my load development.
