I’ve yet to shoot it extensively and test ammo brands at 50 yards. The ‘plastic’ stock isn’t attractive, but as for accuracy, it’s not bad for an entry-level target rifle.

Tom,
for a starter rifle those do well. I had one about 50 or so rifles ago. A friend had one that shot very well, but he had replaced the trigger, stock and barrel to get it there. There is no real need to shoot ity-bity groups unless you are shooting incompetition. Just have fun with what you have!
