If there was any question whether or not Savage makes an out of the box accurate gun, this should put it to rest! A friend of mine knew I was looking for a .300 WSM and sold me this Savage Long Range Hunter over a month ago. I just got a chance to scope it and shoot it for the first time on Monday. It was blowing 10-15 mph with gusts in the 20's. After one (1) sighter round I shot this 5 shot group.
Then I went back today and shot in a calm overcast day and after one sigther round, dialed in and shot the second 6 shot group. Both groups are at 200 yards with just standard, cheapest bullets I could find rounds, to break in the barrel.
I can't wait to tune it in with some custom loads.;-)
It's topped with a Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50PA.
It's always an adventure!!!
