Which one would be more accurate? (Kentucky or Hawken ?)

OP you never mentioned what your intentions for your new rifle are to be? (hunting / targeting paper?) As far as accuracy concerns. Most box rifles offer reasonable accuracy. I guess in preferences-es. That falls to one's tastes in design. I myself have tried to be practical in my purchases.
For primarily hunting purposes. I'm concerned about weight and ease to my shoulder. So the Hawken model appeals to me, although I do not like their crescent shaped stocks. As far as paper targeting and some distant steel pinging. Where weight and the necessity to get a shot off quickly doesn't apply so much. I like the idea of being able to (
Swagger a Kentucky long barrel) around knowing not many where I do most of my target shooting have one. (a real impressive conversation piece it would be amongst us traditionalists) But which ever rifle you choose OP. All's good.
