Savages have the most accurate barrel out of the box and are very accurate rifles. That being said I don't care for them because their bolts are wobbly and triggers stiff. Everything you mentioned, Ruger, Win, Remington, etc. are fine accurate guns and you won't go wrong w/any of them. It all depends on how they feel to you. For me, the best gun out of the box and the one that points and shoots the best is the Encore. I can't describe how comfortable the gun is, it is something that you have to feel.
