Once I sighted in the scope, it was easy to put 5 rounds into one hole at 50 yards. The ammo that shot the best was the Aguila SE subsonic. Wolf Match Target also shot very well in this rifle. I was actually getting better groups with the suppressor, compared to shooting the rifle without the suppressor.
If you get the opportunity to shoot an 880 or purchase one...I'd highly recommend this rifle. I will be using mine for small game hunting this upcoming season.

I bought the same gun when they first came out and I put on a 2-7 power weaver scope on it. Man that thing shot great! It was my dedicated ground hog gun(I'm a special regs hunter no centerfire rifles allowed) But that gun was awesome with .22lr quick shok ammo.
