[QUOTE="J Doss, post: 1668168, member: 109284"] This is true if your talking about top of the line rifles from each of the top companies. Some of the 2nd and third tier rifles can be easily and fairly cheaply made to shoot very well. I have a WeatherBug Vanguard in 270 Win that I won in a raffle that wouldn't shoot a 2"MOA. I refloated the barrel, dressed up the crown on the barrel and did some adjusting on the factory trigger and it now shoots sub 1/2"MOA with the same loads I had previously worked up for my Pre64 Featherweight. All it cost me was a little time and effort. My Pre 64 is now put up in a vault for my grandkids to fight over. Just for the record, I agree that the 5R is an extremely accurate out of the box rifle. I wish Remington would do something about their new triggers though. They are awful touchy to adjust. [/QUOTE]
