I too am in the camp of #1 owners whose rifles all deliver(ed) good accuracy. One of the current ones, a .250-3000 that started life as a .270 40 years ago, took a little coaxing (set screw in the hanger) to get from 1.25 MOA down to a consistent .75 MOA. Truth be told it was deer-whacking accurate enough but, well, you know how it is. A 6.5x55 1A I'm shooting is a good 1/2-incher with nothing having been done to it, but then again I load for it using Wilson straight line dies, Lapua brass, and Bergers and Scenars. It by damn better shoot!
As for the Russkie caliber, meh. It may be the best thing since girls' thongs for some folks but it's origins leave me feeling like I can find better cartridges to spend my Yankee greenbacks on.
