[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 468095, member: 1604"] Back to the Handi-Rifle that won't group.................... Since the gun has a Weaver type rail, I took a Leupold 36X Target scope and slapped it on this gun and boresighted. I reloaded some 55 Gr. Ballistic Tips w/44 grains of H414 and headed to the range after cleaning the snot out of the barrel. I shot 3-3 shot groups after zeroing in with the first shot. Results.....the first group was about 3", the second was 2 1/2" and the third one was 3". Not awful, but not good either. I called customer service at H&R and they said they would guarantee the gun to shoot 2 1/2" groups at 100 yards. They will check it for accuracy and grouping before putting another barrel on and check it again, if and when they use a new barrel. I think we'll be better off getting a new barrel but the kid will be out of a gun for a few weeks and will have to eat the shipping. Should I still send it back? [/QUOTE]
