Reguardless of the platform,the end result is a bolt action is it not?:D

RE: 308 Question
 

Of all the actions listed, The bolt ON AVERAGE is going to shoot the best. No Doubt. Having said that, out of a 100-150 rifles that I have owned, the single most accurate was a 7600 Remington pump in 270. Second was an over/under Savage with a 30-30 top barrel and lower shotgun barrel. Both guns would shoot the 130 and 150 gr Ballistic tips into 1/2 inch at 200 yards. All the rest were bolt guns with a 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser at the top of the list. The three guns listed were out of the box and the Swede was a stock military model. It did however have an aftermarket trigger. These were three shot groups.

I prefer the remington 760 Gamemaster ADL, mines a .308. I can get off three shots all with me getting back on the target within a matter of seconds, if i need them. All are pretty accurate. This deer season i was using 165 grain federal premium pointed soft point. It took down the deer with no problem. As for accuracy i think all guns with almost all ammunition pretty accurate. But for my 760 at 100 yds i put one right through the heart of a big doe.

Rem pumps seems to very accurate if your looking for something other than a bolt. My 7600 - 7mm-08 shoots about 1.25" My Browning A-bolt 7mm-08 is a 1" shooter.

RE: 308 Question
 

myself and 2 friends all own a Bushmaster AR15 rifle. All 3 of these guns will shoot 1/2 MOA with factory ammo and 1/4 MOA with our handloads. These guns are stock, out of the box with NO changes other than the scopes.

Edited to add- This is my rifle-

RE: 308 Question
 

I think this question was posted just to rile us all up. So many variables are involved when we are talking accuracy and we all know it. From the actions, loads, barrels, shooter's ability and on and on.
I have a friend that will cluster his bullets into a tiny group with two of his Rem 760s in 30-06. I've had bolt actions that couldn't shoot as good as these, but I also had bull barreled bolt actions and single shots that would put five bullets into a ragged hole at 100 yds.
And some have their own accuracy standards. Some shooters are content with 2" 100 yard groups while others will get rid of a rifle or have it worked on if it won't shoot under 1".
Off the bench or for varmints, you will be hard pressed to beat a heavy barrel bolt action but I wouldn't want to carry one of these up and down mountains for several days. (but it would still be a bolt action).
Ok, you guys can beat on me a while....:)

RE: 308 Question
 

My favorite caliber, the .308. I have to say, Tikka T3 all the way. I own the Tikka T3 varminter in stainless steel. I have shot other named brand rifles in the .308 caliber, and Tikka was the one rifle that I had no problems with.Well balanced, superb craftmanship, accurate as hell, and a great varminter, hunting, or long distance shooter. I take it to competitions as well as all my big game hunts.

I was just wanting to know what would be the best one to get.

Thats all
