A 111 accurate? I guess if you call .463" center to center accurate shot from the hood of a pickup. Oh did I mention it is in .300Win Mag? The only thing I did is to replace the p.o.j. scope that came on it with a known preforming high quality scope.
Heck yes they can be accurate.
As for copper fouling mine cleans in about 3 patches. Very little to no copper fouling found.
This BBL. was shot with no break in just straight out of the box as it was to be a switch BBl. platform. I don't need a .300 Win Mag as I hunt with 7 stw.
I made the all time mistake of shooting this Savage and now I will look to get another one for the switch BBl rifle plat form.
What I have just said is gospel, Fact.
