This is just one example of the fact that practically every maker is capable of offering hunters a fine shooter without breaking the bank account.

Lord only knows how many different center fire rifles I have sighted in over the past 30-35 years. Hundreds. A few (not any of mine !) were custom built rifles that cost in the thousands. Some retailed for under $250. Only two did not group well ... I mean well under 2.5 MOA. Most the owner and/or I were able to find a load that would group around 1 MOA.

The two that did not come up to what I think is a minimum standard as far as grouping, were a Winchester Model 70 in 300 WSM and the other was an NEF in 30-30 Win. I was not skillful enough to determine the cause of either, but both were dogs regardless of the several combinations of powder charge, bullet type or bullet weight we tried.
