Hi Fellers, I recently bought a used Thompson Center Venture in .243 from a hunting buddy. This thing just didn't shoot as good as I think it should so the first thing I did was replace the cheap combo scope with a Redfield. I've fed this thing just about every production shell I can find and the best I've been able to get out of it is about a 2" group at 100yds with 80gr Barnes Vor-tx. With any 100gr it really opens up and lighter loads aren't much better. From everything I've saw it's supposed to have a 1 in 10 twist and should handle this fine. I was hoping to use it for a mid range calling rifle and maybe let my nephew use it for deer but I've sorta lost faith in it. What do ya'll think?
