Default RE: Out of the box accurate bolt action

What I would pick in this order.
FN A1 SPR Tactical Rifle 308Win: Sub.5MOA shooter out of Box Black Hills 168gr Guanteed

Browning Medallion 308Win:SubMOA 45gr Varget 165gr Gameking

Sako 75 SS 7mmSTW:SubMOA Federal 160gr Accubonds 3 out of 6 first groups (while breaking in cleaning between shots)

Out of 6 or so Remington 700's, only one was a SubMOA shooter Out of Box
204 Ruger 700 ADL Synthectic with 40gr Hornady
Rest were lucky to pull off 1.5MOA without work. After work, I could always get them to shoot.

Browning BAR 30-06: Sub1.5MOA Federal 165gr Gamekings Out of box

Winchester 70 Featherlite 270Win:Out of box 3 MOA factory ammo
but shot 46gr 4064 and 130gr gameking subMOA (go figure, gun likes 4064)

Anything less than SubMOA, and I can't detect it. I might be having a bad day, wind, whatever. Only gun that I can guarntee subMOA even on cold shot is the FN Tactical. The Sako impressed me but I just shot it last week first time.

If you want a cool toy, go to Fulton Armory's webpage. They guarantee and produce all kinds of cool toys from rebuilt m1 garands, to nice M14's to AR's
