f1-score always ~0.75?

I'm working on (what I think is) a straightforward binary classification problem. I'm getting this curious result from my parameter grid search that no matter what the parameters are the model always returns an f1-score of ~0.75. I'm unsure if this: a) reflects something I'm misunderstanding about the f1-score as a metric, b) is due to some problem with the data or model (I'm using XGBoost) that needs to be corrected, or c) just shows that the model parameters are basically irrelevant and an f1-score of ~0.75 is as good as I'll get.

Even more confusingly I got this same result for two entirely different sets of predictors for the same problem (eg if I was predicting real estate value, one set was using neighborhood prices, and the other set was using house characteristics -- different sets of predictors for the same problem). For one set the range was about 0.67-0.82 with an approximately normal variance, and for the second set (shown below) every parameter set gave nearly exactly the same f1-score of 0.7477.

To give some more detail, the current dataset has about 30,000 examples, one class is about 60% of the examples (the other is the 40%). I haven't delved deeply into this new dataset yet, but with the previous dataset, when I examined one model more closely, I found reasonable precision and recall values, which changed somewhat with different parameter sets, which ruined my concern that the model was just guessing the more prevalent class.

I'm using XGBoost, and using scikit-learn's GridSearchCV. Skipping imports etc the grid search code is

grid_values = {'n_estimators':[50,100,200,500,1000],'max_depth':[1,3,5,8], 'min_child_weight':range(1,6,2)}

clf=XGBClassifier()

grid_clf=GridSearchCV(clf,param_grid=grid_values,scoring='f1',verbose=10)
grid_clf.fit(game_records,hora)

print('Grid best score (f1): ', grid_clf.best_score_)
print('Grid best parameter (max. f1): ', grid_clf.best_params_)

Let's assume your classifier predicts everything as majority class, then your :

precision = tp/(tp+fp) = 60/(60+40) = 0,6
recall = tp/(tp+fn) = 60/(60+0) = 1

and your f1 score:

f1 = 2*precision*recall/(precision+recall)= 2*0,6*1/(0,6+1)
   = 1,2/1,6= 0,75

So probalby your classifier is always predicting the majority class.

To check your confusion_matrix once, you can use the following:

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix
print(confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred))
