[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 685952, member: 48043"] I won't diss rugers as I have a couple they will shoot rather well. Most rugers will not hold quite the accuracy that the rems, savages, etc. will. The trued up remmies and custom actions will be under an inch for ten shots at 100 with a good load. The rugers I've seen will do about two inches for ten shots at 100. They are good hunting guns to 1/4 mile or so with pet loads, but that's about it. I have used my #1 in 338 on a deer at 550 yards though. Put him down on the spot. I'm sure you could have one trued up and put a match grade barrel on it, and it would run with a custom grade m70 win.. It's harder to find parts/accesories for rugers too. [/QUOTE]
