10-4 on the components, BSA. You have to be amazed, though, with the accuracy we hear about being achieved with the Axis, Ruger American, and some of the other economy rifles available lately...not to mention some of the other premium offerings.
I think it's accurate to say that most EVERYTHING is getting better---except where the beancounters have had negative influence.
I agree buddy. I can take most all of my Savages and Tikka's out and just bug hole groups with them. My pre 64's are accurate, but they did take some work. Now days, you have some dang good options out there for excellent out of the box accurate rifles. I guess you can say the budget rifles are a lot better now days... To some extent, I am amazed with some of these rifles. One of the reasons I've been buying a lot of savage and Tikka's lately...
