[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1570818"] I will agree that it's encouraging to see factory rifles improving, I still feel that factory options are only 2/3 of the way there. Browning finally stepped it up with fast twist options, but are still limited with saami throating and poor magazine length. What's the point of a 28 Nos with 180-195's stuffed half way down the case. Also It's ridiculous that every manufacture is pretty much chambering the same handful of cartridges. Remember accuracy is not the only consideration when choosing a rifle.. When a serious shooter wants to take advantage of modern cartridges using modern powders and bullets, there's just no replacement for at least a custom barrel. I built a completely custom 5.8 lb Tikka chambered in 6.5 SAUM, with a carbon fiber stock, for about $200 more than a semi decent rifle like the Hells Canyon. [/QUOTE]
