Hey gang. I am looking ot buy a new rifle and am curious as to which brand has better out of the box accuracy. I have an old remmington 721 30-06 that my dad bought used in 1960 and have used it myself for nearly 25-years. This old gun has had more ammuniton go through it than I can recall. Killed many critters from praire dogs to elk. The past few years I have had a tough time keeping my groups within 1" at 100-yards. I can drill a bull one shot then miss the paper the next. At first I thought it may be the user(me), but when putting my .270 to the test I can still drill 1" groups. So am convinced that the gun has outlived it's useful life span.
I do plan on reloading my own ammunition but will most likely use a few boxes of facotry rounds to get used to my new gun. My price range will be around $1000 after putting a good scope on it. The option of a left handed action is going to be a big factor in my decision.
Any info/advice you have would appreciated.
