[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1678161, member: 67552"] I have seen some pretty accurate Howa rifles. I have a Weatherby backcountry (Howa) in .240Wby that is ridiculous. Not a pencil barrel and not $12 a box factory ammo, but a very accurate out-of-the-box rifle for half the price of a Barrett. I think that is the point. A lot of $800 to $900 field rifles will shoot MOA all day long even without the BIC ballpoint load. Maybe .5 MOA is more difficult to come across ;), but you would expect a high end rifle to stand out. That said, it is tough with those barrels with super light contours to them to stay straight for 5 rounds. [/QUOTE]
