My personal experience is that almost all remington 700s will shoot 1" or less with good handloads and some considerably better.I have fired rugers winchesters,brownings and savages and the 700's have been as good as any and better than most.

RE: Rifle Accuracy best out of box
I just purchased a Savage 110 package from Walmart. I'm like you. I wanted an accurate gun without spending a lot of money.
If you're lucky, you may be able to find one at Walmart for under $300 right now. Some of the stores are marking clearance prices on the display case guns.
The gun Walmart is selling includes a Simmons 3-9x30 scope pre-mounted too. I think it's an adequate scope until your budget allows you to buy a nice one. It also include a good set of Uncle Mike's QD sling swivels, but a cheapy nylon sling.
I was originally going to buy a Remington 700ADL. After hearing and reading a lot of good things about the Savage, and the seeing the price difference, I changed my mind.

Sven, how does that gun shoot? I have been looking at getting on of those. Is the scope alright. I was looking at the ones with the leather sling and wooden stock. Is the gun worth is though?
