    I have had good luck with a Howa 1500 and a CZ527 in .223, a Savage 110 in 25-06. The worst out of the box was a Remington 700 BDL in 7 mm mag.

    Rimfire is a CZ 452 Varmint in .22lr. I have yet to own a center fire rifle that makes me say wow.
    Ruger GSR .308, Remington 700V .22-250 have been the best so far. Practically accurate, yes. Wow? No.

    This ^ here.
    I have two Howa 1500's. One in .204 Ruger wearing an over-molded Hogue stock, and the other in 6.5 Creedmoor wearing an ABA chassis stock.
    Both are stupid accurate.
    The ABA chassis was considerably more than the Hogue.

    Love my Ruger Precision rifle in 6.5 creed. I run a factory barrel and trigger, 1/2 MOA at 200, MOA at 1000 and made it to the mile.

    Have one and it shot great first 50 rounds out of the box. I cleaned it with stock on from the breach and accuracy has got progressively worst. Not sure what I did to it. It will be my spring project. Thanks for the response

    I've sold it, but my most accurate out of the box was a Desert Tech SRS-A1 . It was amazing. I had a .308, .300WM, .243, .510 and, .300Whisper barrel for it. All 5 barrels were less than 1/2 MOA.

    Most accurate rifle "out of the box" I ever had is a Weatherby Vanguard Series II in .223. Got it "used" so to speak, but it was BNIB and unfired if I was being told the truth, from an INGO member who said he had won it in a raffle. That thing shot under 1" with everything, and just over .5" with a couple loads the day I took it out to try different ammo in it to see what it liked. (From the bench, I won't be able to replicate this in the field... and to be honest, I was having a good day, lol.) It's no longer "out of the box" as I had it shortened to 16.25", but it's a nice handy little gun.

    I also have a Remington 700 in .243 just as accurate, but can't call it "out of the box" as it came well used with a Boyd's stock. Also an INGO find. I really like this site...

    My most accurate .22 out of the box is my Savage B22FV-SR. I put a Burris Fullfield 2 3x9 on it and it is an absolute tack driver. Hopefully it stays that way when my Dead Air Mask suppressor comes in for it.

    As for as centerfire, My Olympic Arms AR shoots as good my Savage Axis 2 in 7mm-08, At 200 yards I can usually hold about a 2 inch group on a bench with just a bipod.
