RE: Most accurate rifle out of the box?
I have to second what otis posted. If you don't already have a great scope get you one. Either a Zeiss (first choice) or a Leupold. The good scope makes the rifle. It's hard to beat the 700 BDL, got one my self. It was passed to me from my stepdad.

It's not that my BDL isn't accurate(1" groups at 100yds and I don't shoot alot) I've had it glass bedded and floated. I just got the hankering for another rifle.

Back40 I am or was infected with that same disease . I keep getting a relapse.The best medicine is go and buy that new rifle.It's only a temporary cure and sure to come back. It feels so good until the relapse reappears.

I know what you're saying Back40. I got that bug awhile back and soothed the itch with a new Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker chambered in .300 wsm. Could help it just needed a new rifle. I topped it with a Zeiss Conquest. Can't wait to shoot it. Got the day off tomorrow and I'm going to hit the range with it. Can't wait!
