It's gets so much press from some people you'd think it's the only game in town.
Savage 10 FCM Scout
Mossberg MVP series rifles
Steyr Mannlicher Scout
All other options, just FYI...

Pretty sure that's the best group I've heard of from one.

I've got a mate with a scout and I've got a Hawkeye in .308.
We did quite a bit of side-by-side testing and the 22" barrel Hawkeye typically shot slightly better groups than the 18" barrel Scout.

Like I said... Ruger Hawkeye side-by-side a Scout with the same loads, the Hawkeye did better with 6-7 loads tested.
Only my 2c.

I don't know I have heard a few complaints about the action being crap compared to the normal M77 rifles.
