Picking up on Bob's comments and speaking as someone who is not particularly skilled in precision shooting, I offer my experience with the Savage Model 16 Weather Warrior.

I purchased it in .243 Win, but any .308-length cartridge will do. I have a 20" Pac-Nor barrel chambered in .20 Grendel and am getting close to the accuracy Bob reports. Swapping the barrel is almost as easy as it would be with the Scout, but you will need to use a PPC extractor, or a PPC Bolt-Head, or go with a PPC (or 7.62X39) bolt.

I'm getting .6 to .9 moa with loads that I cannot claim to be well-made but were developed using ladder tests, etc.

I suspect that the shooting difference between the Scout and the Model 16 will be in the Accutrigger if the gun smithing to rebarrel and restock the Scout is done well. The other difference is the stainless vs blue steel. Folks who know more than me can verify that the 7.6x39 version of the scout uses the same action as the Scout in .308 Winchester. That means he can swap barrels whenever he might need to launch heavier bullets than feasible in the Grendel.
