Mine is an older pre-accu trigger bolt action Savage model 111 in 30-06 that I put a rifle basix trigger in and floated/bedded the flimsy factory injection molded stock.
It will shot right around 1/2 inch groups @100yds with my handloads if I do my part.

What is your most accurate?
 
Take your pick.
RRA predator pursuit 223
remington sendero in 25-06
old remington 243 that has a new barrel on it.
remington vtr 223 with a B&C stock
remington r25 in 243 different trigger
6mmWOA and 20pr both from john are the tops on my list. But the others listed are not that far behind.
 
Bone stock Browning A-bolt Medallion Varmint in .223. With 50 grain V-maxes over Benchmark it'll generally shoot a 100-yard five-shot group that I can cover with a dime. I'm not a real long range shooter, but have no problem zapping prairie dogs in the 300-350 yard range.
 
Well as I have no guns at this time in life my most accurate with factory ammo was the bone stock DPMS sweet 16 at 100 yards, beyond that would be my Savage accutriggered action I put a 22-250 heavy barrel on and loaded many many rounds, best I had that gun shoot was 1.45" group at 340 yards (all the room we had) when it was set in a Choate ultimate varmint stock wearing a Nikon Monarch 5.5-16X44AO scope. Changed stock a couple times and never saw the same accuracy again, might have been me or might have needed to bed the other stocks but ended up stuck on 243 for a while and sold that barrel to a member here. Wish I could have a full blown custom to brag about but never had that much money.
 
Not trying to sound arrogant, but I don't own any inaccurate rifles. If they start out that way I fix them. If the fix becomes to expensive then I move them on down the road. In truth, not very many "inaccurate" rifles can't be fixed with a simple skim bed, floated barrel, and trigger adjust.
All of mine are consistent 1" shooters or better. .5" to .75" are not uncommon.
 
Ruger 77/17 with 24in green mountain barrel deadly accurate at 75 yards
McMillan 6.5x284 shoots better than I can any given day
Remington 700 223AI with lija 24in #4 fluted
AR seekins lower ops4 upper PAC-Nor 20in 1-8 twist 69grain nosler custom comps and Tac has made on heck of a shooter all are capable of .3-.7 groups depending on how much coffee or MT Dew I got in me that day

All of mine are consistent 1" shooters or better. .5" to .75" are not uncommon. Same here. If I can't fix them they become someone else's problem. Full disclosure at time of sale though. Then if they still want it it's theirs.
 
It has to be one of my savages. Either my .17 Hornet or .17 Hmr. They both shoot really well 1/4 moa. I have a couple of CZ's that are shooters as well. I'm with the guys on here though if its not accurate bye bye.
 
as it was once said "only accurate rifles are interesting".

All my rifles (factory and custom) are tuned untill they can consistantly hold .75" or smaller 5-shot groups at 100yrds. Even my marlin 17hmr holds sub .5" in calm wind.

But my most accurate rifle would be my 16.5" rock barreled rem700 in 6.5x47mm Lapua.
 
German made Brazilian contract Mauser action with a 308 win barrel, the maker slips my mind. In what was a Parker hale lightweight english walnut sporter stock that got altered into a more German style design with a timney side safety trigger.
 
My Sinclair modified/accurized (long ago) Sako Vixen Heavy Barrel .222R. It is capable of .28 groups at 100 yards, if I do my part at the loading and shooting benches.
 
I have a reputation of buying rifles and tricking them out until they shoot bugholes and then selling them only to start over. I've sold many 1/2 inch rifles.

243AI, trued Remmy w/Hart barrel
22-250AI, trued Remmy with Shilen barrel
223AI, trued Remmy, shilen barrel
223 Howa Varmint. bone stock
222 Remmy Varmint, bone stock
270 Remmy, bone stock, In Progress!!

All of the above shoot little bitty groups with handloads,pick one!
 
I also don't own any inaccurate rifles. Some are just more accurate than others. My most accurate is a Rem 700 VS in .25-06.

A few years ago I had a new Krieger barrel put on this rifle. I was promised 1/2" groups. They were wrong most groups are just over 1/4", unbelievable for this cartridge.
