Again I challenge anyone to provide proof that savage(or anyone else for that matter) makes the most accurate production rifle.I have seen tests pitting several different varmint rifles against each other in the april 1994 and april 1997 issues of the shooting times and savage did no better than 4th out of five rifles in both tests.Incidently using true varmint cartridges(not specialized target rounds) remington had the most accurate rifles in both tests.Using the 22ppc cartridge a sako narrowly beat out a 220swift remington.Still in order to claim the title of most accurate production rifle a test would have to be conducted where several models in several chamberings for a total of ten or so rifles from each company would have to be pitted against each other in a shoot off and the average group sizes compared.The rifles would have to be randomly selected from dealers stocks to ensure that they were truly average rifles and not carefully selected ringers.To my knowledge this has never been done so there is really no proof of who really makes the most accurate production rifle.
