[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1040539, member: 63138"] midwestmoa You must have been bored to start this thread as it will no doubt get some attention. Nevertheless I basically agree with what you are saying. I have more than a dozen big game rifles and only one of them is a full custom. They all shoot sub MOA with hand loaded ammo. Some of them will shoot quarter MOA. But.... (there is always a but), the full custom rifle is near the top for accuracy and it has shot that way for 600 rounds. I have a pure factory 300 RUM and it will shoot 0.25 MOA for 15 shots and after that you would be lucky to hit a coffee cup with it. If you clean the copper out, it goes right back to being 0.25 MOA. On the other hand I have a semi-custom with a Brux 4 groove. It shoots great and never needs to be cleaned (I clean it every 100 rounds or so just because). Bottom line. I think you get what you pay for with a full custom - I just can't afford to buy all the ones I would like so I end up with factory/semi-custom and they work OK. [/QUOTE]
