Some people don't like Savage rifles, but my 116 30-06 is just silly accurate. Very few of my test loads shot over 1.25", but this is the hunting load that I settled on a few years back, and I've never had a deer take another step after being shot with it. This usually isn't the most accurate load out of this rifle, but always shoots sub-MOA with the best velocity (2950 fps), and today it really shined.
My Tikka 338WM is far more finicky. Either it like the load or it hates it, not much in between. It really seems to like the 200gr NABS and I4350, and this is the best that it's done so far.
Sorry, but I left my pen at home and could only find a carpenters pencil in the truck for writing notes on the targets. These were 100yd, 3 shot groups
