[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 168009, member: 1290"] I'm not sure what to say. I only have personal experience with exactly 25 Mark 5's and every one of them was or is Sub MOA out of the box. All mine shoot under 1/2" easy. I really want a custom built on one but can't bring mywself to take any rifle apart that shoots so good. The trouble is other than Rugers and Savages all the other rifle brands cost just as much to build on. To those that say they can build up a 700 or 70 for less, no thanks. Sendero's are as much as what I paid for my Accumarks and by the time I get one of them equal to my Accumark I will have twice as much in it. I have one in my safe right now that I was considering buying but he has over $2000 in it and he hasn't set a price on it yet. It's really nice and I believe it is a shooter but haven't done any serious shooting with it yet. It only has 20-30 shots through it. I have finally decided I will only build my dream custom on a purely aftermarket custom action. I'm kind of waiting to see what Kirby's new action will be like. Otherwise I will use one of the other customs. I would settle for a Mark 5 if I could find one for sale at a decent price. I also like the new Sako actions but they cost more than a Weatherby.
