[QUOTE="wildcat westerner, post: 1365048, member: 21361"] Hello, I assure you this is a serious request. I received a Savage stainless, single shot rifle .308 and accutrigger used only in lead bullet competition. The barrel was smooth and I was told quite accurate. I had it rechambered to .300 WSM and added a Leopold 4.5 x 14x with cdm turret. I am used to reloading to long range benchrest finite specs. I fired this rifle this morning placed 3 shots in 5 3/8" at 700 yards with Swift hunting Bullets. Practically speaking, should I be content with this accuracy, or do you think this platform, with its custom bedding and further loading refinement is capable of more accuracy? I would appreciate your serious insights. This is the first factory weapon I have owned in decades. Thank you for your attention in this matter. Gene S. [/QUOTE]
