skeet, There are really sub-MOA rifles out there. It is just that many people don't want to go to the trouble of finding out what it takes to make them shoot that way. In my book, No. 1 is a clean barrel devoid of any copper foulng. Second is usually less than "full house loads". And third, varying the distance the bullet is from the lands. I have always heard stories of how a .22 Hornet is inherently inaccurate. I have two of the accurate ones that can put 5 bullets into less than the MOA if I do my job. My accuracy load in the 30-06 is 1.5 grains less than the recommended military loading for that cartridge. I always tell my son that a prairie dog never knows how fast the bullet was going that gets him.
