I don't know about new pistols but less than $500 will get you a rifle these days that will be 1 MOA right out of the box. I bought one for $350, put a good scope on it for $150 and bingo, 1 MOA. Never heard of such a thing. Howa Mini .223 and Leupold VX1. Looks like mud, shoots like a thousand dollars.
