My Montana 7-08 was shooting 4" groups outta the gate. A little extra barrel float back at the shank made a world of difference...

Sometimes a little bit of effort and time can be well worth it, to end up with a rifle that is 6 lbs scoped and ready, shoots 3-shot groups under 0.75 MOA with many different bullets and loads, has an excellent stock and trigger, CRF, all SS construction, etc, etc, and you guys in the US can get all that for ~$1000 and possibly a few minutes of elbow grease, if you look around.
