maybe its just my luck, wanted to emphasize that my only bolt action that shot 1/2 moa out of the box was a rimfire, I have an ancient rem. 600 that comes close but won't do it all day long, nor every day for that matter, maybe its my poor marksmanship. however my heavy custom hunting rigs can blow your mind, they will do 1/2 moa quite easily to 500 yards and beyond, some of them way beyond.
