accuracy of a gun

Are the Mausers accurate guns? I have a Western Field 770A-EHM (Mauser 3000). I only shot it open sight at 50 yrds. I can hit dead center of a target. Just curious. Also, can someone give me an example of brands that are not accurate?

Thanks

The Mauser 98 action is one of the best. This action is quite often the choice of those who build a custom rifle from scratch. Its amazing that an action built nearly 60 years ago is still the standard for custom rifle making today.

I don't know about 'built' - that depends on specific gun, but this action was designed more than 100 years ago - the 98 refers to 1898! Truely an amazing design!
