[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1014656, member: 25383"] they use Remington's for two good reasons. Cost and a strong lobby. Look around to see what some of the other folks are using. Not everybody uses a Remington. Hundred bucks a shot! I hope you have a deep bank account, cause some folks might take you to task with some out of the box equipment. I've seen several out of the box Vanguards shoot low sixes out of the box with factory Remington ammo. I've seen a couple out of the box Sakos shoot mid three's (both were 6PPC). I've seen Rugers shoot high three's (6mm). I've probably seen 25 Savages in .223 shoot mid to low three's effortlessly. I've seen three 22-250's from Savage shoot from very low three's to extremely low two's (all five shot by the way). But to add insult, I shot an AR chambered in .223 about a year ago. It was out of the box with a $30 flea market Tasco scope mounted on it (3x-9x) start out shooting in the high sixes. By the end of the day it was shooting six hundred thousandths five shot groups using ammo designed for my 700 Rem. (55 grain Vmax over 27.5 grains of BLC2).
