Why Do I Need An Accurate Rifle?

Do I really need a rifle that will shoot 1/2” groups? Will a rifle this accurate kill any more game? Yes, you do need this accuracy, and because of it, you will kill more game. There are many people that will tell you that you don’t. They will tell you that 1/2” groups off of the bench don’t correlate to success in the field. They are wrong! If a gunsmith tells you this, what he is really saying is that he can’t build a rifle capable of shooting that well. If a magazine writer tells you this, then what he is really saying is that he is incapable of shooting that well.

There is one word to describe why you need a rifle that can shoot 1/2” groups, confidence. When you are shooting off of the bench, you have the most ideal conditions that you can find. In any scientific endeavor, you have a “control”. A control is a baseline that all of the other measurements are stacked against. In the rifle world, shooting off of the bench is your “control”. No other method of shooting will give you the same conditions. They all allow more human error to creep in. When a rifle is able to shoot 1/2” groups from the bench, and you know it, the only thing left in the equation of hitting your quarry is your ability. The same way that a surgeon must have confidence in his instruments, a rifleman must have faith in the razor-edge accuracy of his rifle. We build that confidence.

Time is not replenishable. In the fast paced world that we live in, time in the field is precious. Without a doubt, luck plays a role in the taking of any animal. But do you rely on luck alone? When the rare opportunity to take game on a hunt arises, you are cheating yourself not to have the most accurate and dependable rifle available. We feel that our customer’s deserve to have the very best rifle available in the world. You deserve a Carolina Precision Rifle.
