I'm wondering what kind of accuracy these rifles are capable of in factory form.
Of course all the little tricks like bedding, floating the bbl and quality handloads and glass are a given.
Are the barrels the same as the Savage rifles?
We have been told the short actions are the same as a Savage 10 without the Accutrigger, but does that mean the barrels are too?
Can MOA accuracy be expected?
Im thinking of a low cost,light weight, med range(<600yd), beater in maybe 7-08. Will be used for small deer, so the cartridge should be up to the task.
Any who have experience with these rifles please advise.
Oh, and this project would be kind of an experiment that may later become a donor action if plans change. I already have a LR rifle as well as a few for other purposes.
