If you find a slug that it likes (can get pricey trying different ones but you have to do it), 2"-3" groups are not uncommon at all. Word to the wise to save you a bunch of headache and $....don't tighten your barrel nut by hand when you put it on your gun. It will shift from the recoil and drive you crazy when it shoots so poorly. Lock the barrel nut down with some pliers and it will most likely surprise you how good it will shoot.
