My 20" predator averages 3/4" for 5 shot groups and sometimes better. I haven't played with loads much and I may not have the shooting skills to do any better. I like the barrel a lot; it's light and generally accurate.
I always oil the bore and crown every time I shoot. My barrel isn't super rust prone but I've found you need to be more careful than with a stainless barrel.

My Predator is one of the most accurate rifles I own.
That would take some awfully slow burning powder @ 100 yds.
Right after shooting that group, my hunting partner sat down with it and shot a mirror group in the upper right hand quadrant of the aiming square that measured under 1/2". The two groups would have overlapped slightly had they been shot on same square. It's not difficult to shoot good groups w/that rifle.
