    Well this post seems to drip with sarcasm, but I'll add my 2 cents. I've never pulled a Savage or any other rifle out of the box and had it consistantly shoot well under 1 moa with factory loads. I do not doubt, however, that it is possible. I have, however, had several sporter and varmint weight rifles that would shoot well under 1 moa after some judicious reloading. As a matter of fact, 4 out of 5 Remington .243s would. (a 660 and 3 700s) None had custom barrels, bedding or stocks. I've also owned several that would not - Ruger Varmint .22-250, Remington Varmint .22-250, Remington 788 .243 to name a few. I have a .223 hog hunter that I shot four consecutive 3 shot groups at or under 1/2 moa. Out of 4 different reloads, only one shot over 1 moa (and it was way over) Now you can call me a liar if you like, but I do have photos and still have the targets. I'm not an "internet expert". I've been shooting for over 5 decades and I have no reason to enhance my groups or exagerrate my results. Perhaps those who think this is impossible, need to learn to shoot a little better.
