[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1372543, member: 33159"] I'm trying to remember if the mag gave me any COAL issue. The only 2 bullets I've shot out of it our the 210 gr Hammer Hunter and a 225 Nosler E-tip. I'm pretty sure the Hammer bullet is only 0.02 from the lands and no issue with the box mag. The E-tip has quite a bit of jump (and I always do the Berger seating depth protocol before I truly work up a load) so, obviously, there is no mag box COAL issue. Don't knock the Savage rifles too much. Very first rifle I ever owned is a 30-06 Savage 110 and it's a frickin' tack driver. Loves cheap or expensive ammo. Has always been sub moa and got even better once I started reloading for it. I also have a 6.5-284 Norma Savage 116 LA that was originally a 30-06 but rebarreled with a 24" Savage factory barrel in the Norma. Again, it's a frickin' tack driver. Can't argue with results!! I don't own a Weatherby Mark V, but I have buddies who do. Very nice rifles and all the ones coming out of the factory now are guaranteed sub-moa, so I'd say they have their quality control up to where it needs to be. [/QUOTE]
