[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 756038, member: 61747"] Oh well I guess I am not positive. I was told they do and told to get one if I built the rifle vs buying it like I did. Once my buddy told me about this special edition 116 I immediately went and bought it. I am not sure if the savage needs a better stock then the accu...at least bang for the buck might not be there. I am not experienced enough to say either way. Fortunately this rifle seems to shoot and therefore I don't sink more money into it. I was able to pick this rifle up for $700. I built a cheek rest to get me lined up with the scope and then bought a nightforce from the classifieds here to top it off. Once it is all said and done I will have a little over 2200.00 in the rifle not including the dies and brass. For the built rifle I was looking originally at 3500.00 total if I had to pay full price for optics. 1500 for the gun and 2000 for the scope. Ouch, I couldn't do that....I would have had a nice rifle or nice scope, not both. [/QUOTE]
