What have you seen them perform?
Now I really feel like I stepped into an alternate reality....

stated his example of a 700 SPS Tac is solid sub .5 MOA, with a regular street price of over $600. Granted, that's an exceptional example and not what most report, as shooters will most commonly see .5 to 3/4...which is still exceptionally impressive comapred to the Ruger since it's a few hundred bucks cheaper, even as low as $550 if you check gunbroker. He tested the
700 SPS Varmint as a .75 MOA rifle, also around the same price. I've seen such performance on demand, and consistent, from a friends 700 Police, as well. He stated the
700 VTR is one of the worst examples of a Remington heavy barreled rifle he's tested, with an average .858" group. The average group he got from a Savage 10 FCP McMillan was .682", with prices comparable to this Ruger. The Savage 10FCP with an HS Precision stock can be had for a grand as well, and I don't imagine it performs any worse.
Tikka T3 Tactical?
.625" average, and you're able to get them for $1200 without much effort.
Other than that, I don't know what to say.
I get that some shooters may find it attractive to have PMAG compatibility with an 7.62 AR if they own one...or the other tactical doodads on the rifle....but I don't get the enthusiasm over the rifle as if it's doing something never done before with accuracy in its price range.
It's simply not true. Well documented, and not an opinion.
