[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 181378, member: 313"] Not sure what your beef is with the Harts but they have produced some fine shooting rifles over the years. The rifle didn't need a custom stock. Maybe a synthetic but not necessarily a custom. I could have used a custom barrel with a heavier contour and a stock that was more stable but that would have left me with a 9 lug action that is all but impossible to get full engagement on. Why start with a flawed foundation? I bought a few Remingtons at a much lower cost and had them blue-printed and rebarreled. They will all shoot rings around any Weatherby that I've ever seen, including the Accumarks. It really isn't all that unusual to see a reworked Remington shot .25 MOA and occasionally smallergroups. I've had several that could do it. Even my 7STW Sendero (with Hart bbl) has shoot groups as small as .350" @ 200 yds, and it did it with a Hornady SST hunting bullet, not a match bullet. [/QUOTE]
