Out of the box accuracy is usually great, the accutriggger is good once you get used to it, some think the stock is flimsy but all of mine have shot fine with the factory stock I have six short action Savages that I use to hunt preds with. On the heavy barreled ones I hog out the barrel channel so the stock can't touch the barrel no matter how I rest the gun, works for me. I just bought a bunch of raffle tickets on the same rifle, didn't win. second year in a row.
