We study the behavior of asymptotically free (AF) spin and gauge models when their continuous symmetry group is replaced by different discrete non-Abelian subgroups. Precise numerical results with relative errors down to O(0.1%) suggest that the models with large subgroups are in the universality class of the underlying original models. We argue that such a scenario is consistent with the known properties of AF theories. The small statistical errors allow a detailed investigation of the cut-off effects also. At least up to correlation lengths ~300 they follow effectively an O(a) rather than the expected O(a^2) form both in the O(3) and in the dodecahedron model.
