Just ordered a 30-30 Handi-Rifle from my FFL dealer. It should be in next week. I plan on scoping this rifle and using it as my woods deer gun. What kind of accuracy should I expect?

congrats and good luck with your new 30-30 handi. I don't have one, but from what I hear on this forum it is a pretty accurate rifle.
Good Luck,

Norse

1"-1½" or a little bettter is pretty standard for factory ammo, the Federal Fusion 150gr shoot real good in mine at less than 1" 3-shot groups, 1st 2 touching!! Handloaders can do better, and they shoot cast bullets real well, too!! Congrats on the new Handi!!

I have a Mueller 2-7x32 Multi-shot on mine.....
