“Every rifle I’ve ever owned outshot me”
If I ever hear someone say that I’ll be happy to tell them they either haven’t owned more than 2 rifles or they are the worst marksman in history and should hire someone to pull the trigger for them.

I’ve got an old 30-30 bolt action that is what I would call decently acceptable for accuracy. Though I’ve never really benched it for accuracy since it was a hunting rifle, it shoots 2-3” groups at 100 yards.
Then I have a Tikka T3x CTR in 6.5 Creed that shoots so well it makes the 30-30 target look like it was hit with 12ga buckshot from about 5 yards away. The Tikka will routinely print 5 shots into .5” or less at 100 yards when I do my part.
