Bought a .25/06 Savage AXIS. Horrid trigger, but extremely accurate. 3/8" to 7/8", 85gr. & 90gr. handloads, 115gr. Federal Factory Partitions as well as a handload using 117gr. Partitions. The 117's were the least accurate, but still were under an inch for 5 shots. Today, I think it's the bullets that are the accuracy deal - should not be the rifle.
My M46 Husky, even with the sized down .375's, shot under the inch mark, not much, but was consistent - a good barrel too, of course. 225gr. to 300gr. RN's - 14" twist. The rifle was made in 1929.
