[QUOTE="imyourhuckleberry, post: 1491238, member: 18206"] Your rifle is shooting 1.5" to 2" group in reality is a typical group for semi-auto rifles. Though it is possible to get smaller groups some upgrades have to be made such as better quality barrels, preferably a heavy barrel, maybe shimming the upper and lower parts to remove some of the slop, better triggers, and finally finding a bullet weight and load the rifle likes. Have you considered doing some dry firing drills. In this particular case I would recommend the dime drill. Place a dime at the end of the barrel aim and than squeeze the trigger. If the dime falls from the barrel it is an indication that you are jerking. Do this until you can successfully squeeze the trigger several times consecutively without the dime falling. This too will help you control your breathing as well. One of my rifles a RRA shoots .680 5 shot groups at a 100 using 75 grain bullets using rl15 23.5 grains. I can not get it to group with lighter bullets. Just keep experimenting until you find what it likes. Like it or not it is a 22 caliber and every rifle is finicky . [/QUOTE]
