Years ago I had a Blue Sky Inland with an SA barrel. It was a great shooter, too. I personally think carbines get a bad rap for accuracy department. Most I have had have been 4" or less at 100 yards. Ample for what they were intended for. I had a really worn and shot out Inland transitional, that at 25 yards, would not even do 7 of 10 rounds inside the 5 inch area on the 25 yard sight in target.
