[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1261941, member: 4566"] That thing SHOULD be capable of under .5 MOA from the factory out to a long ways away. If you aren't getting that I would play with action screw torque and the bedding system, possibly re-headspace it or just the LOAD. You have what is one of the most accurate factory guns to ever leave a factory. I wouldn't start chopping pieces off of it UNLESS I REALLY knew what I was doing, WHY, what the possible benefit is and HOW it will achieve it. That gun is winning pretty high level LR shoots STOCK without being hacked on. What is the rig shooting like right now and what are you wanting it to achieve? What is your load? Does the barrel feel OK when you are cleaning? What is your rest system like? I would tell you to sell the dang thing to someone before you do what you are proposing or send it back to Savage. I have seen those things run under .25 MOA at well beyond 1k. Chopping on it will most likely not improve on that performance. [/QUOTE]
