[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 292929, member: 11717"] A few offer accuracy guarantees, but they can be very tough to collect on. I am currently having issues with my "guaranteed" Sako. I sent the rifle to them with 2-4 MOA bullet riddled targets and they "clean" the rifle and send it back with a computer generated target (no real bullet holes) supposidly showing a .9 MOA group and then say this rifle is fine :cool: I would say that Rem Senderos probably have the best out of the box accuracy rep, followed closely by Savage and Tikka. Howa's and Vanguards (made by Howa) are also usually very good. Sub MOA Vanguards actually come with a target with real bullet holes. Most factory rifles these days are good shooters, some maybe a little better than others, but you will occasionally run into a lemon. Also, the more powerful the cartridge, the more you want to look at the quality of stock the rifle comes with. Dont be in a hurry to get one. Do a lot of reading in this forum and others and you will get a good feel for what's out there. You can sometimes get a good deal on gunbroker.com, or right here, or in your local classifieds. I found a tack driving Sendero 300 RUM in my local classifieds. -MR [/QUOTE]
