[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 533669, member: 25383"] You said .223, and that's kinda important here. The Savage comes with a 1:9 twist barrel, and last time I heard Remingtons use a 1:14 twist barrel. Kinda rules out all those high B/C bullets and most stuff in the 55 grain class as well. Both can be made into fine shooting rigs, but the Savage is easier, and will come in cheaper in the long run. Myself, I'd look for a 12BVSS-S single shot gun. The Savage stock works much better off the bench than the Remington, but even then it needs some work. Off hand I think the Remington is a better handeling stock. I shoot a 700VS in .223, and had to virtually rebuild the complete gun to get it to shoot sub half inch groups. I like the rifle, but would never ever do that again. The Savage is capable of sub half inch groups right out of the box! gary [/QUOTE]
