It can shoot seriously good groups, I brought an old rebarreled Rem Mod 7 from a mates estate, he had alot of awesome hunting history with it, i had hunted with him a few times and knew his love for it, and knew he was a good fussy handloader, it came with a few remaining handloads which i tested in it, it shot under a 1 inch group at 300 yards. I didnt know what the powder charge or bullet was, so i pulled one apart (after measuring the coal) and reverse-engineered it, 85gr Sierra HPBT with 44gr of H414, at whatever the coal was (i have it recorded). I loaded some more up and bingo! Its a good powder, you either love or hate ball powder, it doesnt bother me.
