Bought a Barrel

I have already posted this on another thread but I bought a 10" 7mm-08 Encore barrel w/a 4x scope. I then bought a rubber forearm and grip off of ebay.  I am keeping them w/in an 1" 1/2 at 50 yards.  That is as far as I've shot it so far.  I love it!  It is Awesome.   Do you/ya'll think I'm going to be disappointed when I move back to 150 or even 100 yards?  All I'm hopeing for is a pie plate at 150 yards.  I want to be able to take deer at that distance.  I am shooting 120 gr Remington Hollow points out of it.   I was extremely satisfied and surprised at the 50 yard accuracy.  It's actually more like an inch group.  I didn't measure exactly.  
  The trigger is a little stout, and I'm in the process of trying to find someone who will/can do a trigger job for me.  But other than that, I couldn't be happier.  SO...........   What do ya'll think this rig will do past 100 yards?
