[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 630267, member: 10291"] I also agree with previous comments about generalizing rifle accuracy. I have owned three Remington Milpecs in 308 over the past several years. All shot under .5MOA right out of the box with Federal 168 Match SMK's. Two of them shot .25MOA out to 500 yards with hand loads. I think the biggest advantage of the 5R rifling is that the accuracy would hold for least 200 rounds without cleaning, and POI was the same, hot or cold. They would also clean up very fast with minimal copper fouling. The barrels seem to hold their accuracy for 2500 rounds before opening up to 1MOA. I agree that the Savage is pretty impressive. There are several at our club that shoot very well. My buddy has a the Benchrest Target Model that shoots a half inch at 300 yards very consistently. [/QUOTE]
