Damn few doubles will shoot 3 inches at 100 yards, more like 5 to 8 inches is the norm in the real world, but they are not for shooting at 100 yards, they are for shooting up close an personal, 25 and 50 yards...Some have a 100 yard double, but they are the exception or the expert who can tune one well, not average Joe...In fact damn few shooters can shoot 3" at 100 yds with a hard kicking double. Most 30-30s, as a matter of fact, will shoot circles around most doubles.

This does not apply to 450 No.2, Mac, Rusty, 500 grs, Micky1, and some of these guys, as its a passion with them and if the gun would deliver to their expectations, they would dump it in a heartbeat. Include me in that group..

If average Joe wants accuracy then use the bolt gun...its inherently more accurate by design...
