Customer Comments & Questions
Customer Reviews
Recently bought this rifle and was so impressed with it, I'm moved to write a review. TC says it has 1 MOA out of the box and they are correct. I sighted in at 50 yards and after 1 shot and adjusting windage/elevation, the next 3 shots were at 1/2 MOA. Then went to 100 yards, and 200 yards, and then to 300 yards! All shots were within 1 or LESS! Incredibly accurate rifle and even though it's their entry level rifle, the accuracy cannot be argued with. Liked it so much, 2 weeks later I bought there Venture Predator!
I did a lot of research online of many different rifles from many different manufactures of different calibers. I viewed hours of video on Youtube. I ran across a video on the Thompson Center Compass. It had an unbelievable price, so what the heck. I ordered the 223 combo with the vortex scope. At first, I had a lot of trouble shooting any tight groups. I tried different ammo with different bullet weights, nothing was helping. The rifle would shoot 2 shot 1 hole group, then jump way off. I finally decided to change scopes. This helped getting great consistent groups. After working up some hand loads, it shot dime size groups @ 100 yds. VERY Happy with this rifle. All for under 400.00. I sent the scope off to vortex for repairs hope it works well when I get it back. I love the rifle.
