[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 864666, member: 25383"] back in the 1970's, all Vanguards came with that same guarantee, but they later opened it up. I have a 30-06 from that era (paid $242!!), and it easily will do that MOA spec, and have actually shot 3/4" groups at 200 yards with it. But for some odd reason doesn't shoot anything heavier than 165 grains worth a ****. Another crazy thing about it, is that it simply shoots factory Remington 150 grain Corelocks lights out!! It shoots them better than I've been able to hand load! When I ordered the rifle, I wanted dark walnut (they offered three colors), and my dealer actually picked it up at a warehouse in Ohio. Looked thru several rifles, and one just jumped out at him. Has four different colors in the wood, and starts with a dark reddish walnut and evolves into a blueish grey. Been threatening to have the heavy gloss finish stripped, and going back with an oiled finish for years. gary [/QUOTE]
