RE: Which Gun
For consistent accuracy in an American made rifle I'll take the Remington 700 any day. I would also take a Winchester Model 70. I have been extremely disappointed in my Ruger M77 MkII as far as accuracy, but it still has put meat in the freezer.
Just got a CZ550 in 6.5x55 Swede. What a delight - - this is the most accurate out-of-box rifle I have ever shot. May need more; thank God I have a son who will need a rifle someday!
