Vapo, we are going to SD this coming weekend and shooting pdogs. We should meet up there and I could let you shoot a true varmint rifle. I have several mod 12 bull bbl Savages that will shoot a tick off of a pdog at 200 yds. No feeding problems or dependability issues either. Take my challenge; come shoot the king of varmint rifles. I'll buy all the beer that night that you can drink if you can make one of my 6 Savagesjam or not feed properly.

I've been burnt by savage on a 300wsm!!!! So I wont be buying another!!!! BUT I do have a M112 22-250 and it shoots 5 shots of any factory ammo in a nickle size group. No accutrigger...

I hate to say anything good about them after being burnt...

As far as them backing there rifle... They told me 1.56" in my 300wsm was acceptable... Bought a Browning abolt 300wsm shoots under 1 MOA:D

I'm a lefty so all my new guns will be left hand models... So it looks like Browning for me:D

1.3" isn't all that bad. If you wanted supreme accurcy then you should have bough a varmit/bench gun. Buying a hunting rifle and then asking it to shoot a 1/2" group at the range seems to be asking a bit much. I am surprised it didn't shoot under one inch though. I don't think there is a company out there that has produced products and had lemons in the bunch. Some guns just flat are not going to shoot.

Mr Longbeard, I hear ya. I too got burned on a Savage, Mine was an 11FNS .308 Accutrigger that was a 1.3" gun on its best days. Never again. If I had to choose amoungst the current crop of factory varminters, I would take a Remington 700 VS SFII. Outstanding accuracy, and possibly the best trigger (for target-varmint work) currently available. With that said, What I would actually do (and did) would be to buy an older used LV or HV bench gun. You'll pay less and get better accuracy.
