[QUOTE="Rick Richard, post: 1046812, member: 75895"] Some calibers are inherently more accurate than others, which is the reason a lot of competive shooters choose the calibers mentioned. As mentioned, the Savage will provide you with a GREATER chance of getting lucky where you can have a 'stock" rifle that will shoot to your expectations...need good glass and loads (hand loads) though. I just recently purchased a Savage Max 1 Predetator in 6.5 Creedmoor and am very satisfied with accuracy. It has produced 5/16 inch groups at 100 yards with handloads and 5/8 inch groups with factory Hornady ammo. Now with all of this being said, you will probably end up with a custom at some point so why not just spend the money up front. Good luck and happy shooting. [/QUOTE]
