"I like to keep things simple, don't care to engage in benchrest type reloading techniques and 1" @ 100yrds is still the standard. "

One of the most misunderstood parts of shooting is what is meant by "1" @ 100 yards" and very few shooters really know what such a statement means. For example, how many shots are in that group? 3, 5, 10, or some other number? Is that 1" (extreme spread) derived from firing a single group or is it the average of multiple groups? And if it is an average of multiple groups, then how many groups? You may not believe it, but a SINGLE 10-shot group really contains 252 possible different five shot groups.
