Default Could it be a sub-MOA?

I purchased a new Weatherby Vanguard in .300 Weatherby Magnum just before Weatherby started marketing the Vanguard in sub-MOA. Well, a stroke, from which I have completely recovered, and other factors kept me from really seeing what it could do in the accuracy department. Yesterday I finally got it really dialed in and the last two groups I shot were .33 inches and .37 inches. I understand that Weatherby (actually Howa) test fires each rifle at the factory (for some reason there was no target in the box of my rifle) and the ones that shoot a group within one inch get taken aside and get sub-MOA stamped on them and the price tag increased by several hundred dollars. Is it possible that I was lucky enough to get a Vanguard that would have been a sub-MOA before they started pulling them aside, or can any rifle shoot groups like that, just not as consistently?
