Buddy of mine spent some thousand(s) of dollars on a couple Savages to have them 'smithed, printed, bolt faces squared, cryo'd, etc.' 6 month project, each rifle, etc. etc. Whatever. He loves telling you all about it. And it's never a short story.
Both rifles print consistently quarter sized groups down range. Respectable groups. Nothing to swing dicks over. He's the same guy who you can never convince to stop buying $400 box store production rifles and chasing them with gunsmiths to make them square, straight, plumb and reliable enough to shoot right. Gave up years ago. Whatever. He enjoys it.
I bought a custom action ($850), paid my gunsmith to spin up ($350) a Bartlien barrel ($400) on it, threw a Timney trigger ($250) in it and it prints dime size groups down range. No fuss.
I like my method to tight groups than his. YMMV.
