[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1246362, member: 70559"] Your "hog wash" is a good assessment. A few years ago I purchased a cheap plastic stock Savage 26" 9" twist Varmint barrel .223. I worked up a load and fired 10 shots at 200 yards. It measured .880". A friend of mine bought a Remington with a much nicer stock with a barrel very similar to mine. He worked up a load and the best he could do was five shots in 3/4" at 100 yards. He asked me and I couldn't do any better. He asked what I would do. "I would sell it and buy a Savage." So he did. He bought one that looked like his Remington. The stock was huge. I stuck some of my load in. I fired three shots at 100 yards. The group was 3/8". He fired five and his group measured .400". Same two guys with Remington and Savage. [/QUOTE]
