when they say a savage is accurate right out of the box they aint kidding! today i shot the 2nd box of rem. .223 fmj through a brand new predator and my 2nd scope thats been mounted, and by the time i was done i had my best 4 shot group. 2 overlapping holes and a 3rd just a smidge away #4 was less than a 1/4 away from the rest. 3 holes could be covered by the primer end of the casing and all 4 could be covered with a quater. this was done at 100 yards and slightly breezy and cold. also the ammo is cheap remington 55 gr fmj from wally world. i'm stoked!
