Default Most Accurate & Reliable High Rifle Available

Eliminatingthe cost factor, what would be the most accurate and reliable high power rifle in 270 (or 30-06)avalible. I have researched many, and it is an extremely difficult decision.

I've been looking at these in consideration:

Savage has a good reputation on being good shooters but Tikka has a MOA guarantee. Ive never shot a Browning but currently own a Tikka and my little borhter has a Savage and they are both great guns. I dont remember what model Savage he has but it is a little heavy for my liking. I have a Tikka T3 Lite Stainless in 300 WSM that is a great shooter. Im getting right around 1-1.25in groups with my 300 WSM and he is getting 1.25-1.5in groups with his 30-06.

It depends on how much you want to spend.

Sako
HS Precision
Christensen Arms
Magnum Research
Custom Remmy 700
Dakota
Jarrett
Cooper
CZ
Ed Brown
Lazzeroni
FN

Those are "the best" imo.

With no cost to hold back it would likely be an Ed Brown or HS precision for me.

Since cost isn't a factor, I'd say
#1 Jarret
#2 HS Precision 1/2MOA Gurrantee

I'm sure many others make sub MOA rifles, I think sako gurrantees 1 MOA.

Money not being a factor.I would probally go Jarret( probally not in those calibers. Then again I like those 7 MM STW's).Something more suited to a bean fieldrifle.Caliber not being an issuse I would probally try to get Ridgerunner to talk to his bud Kirby Allen and build some off the wall Allen Mag.

Off the shelf, Sako (preferably a 75)
