Im sure most will agree if you are getting 7" groups, there is something else wrong w/ the set up, than anything haveing to do w/ the manufacturer. Savage are know for excellent accuracy anyway. My savage ml does an 1". Are your action screws tight? do you use a front and rear rest? are you resting the forarm or the barrel on it? what kind of scope mounts are you using? I guarantee it is not the rifle that is causing 7" groups.
