[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 759745, member: 2736"] If you are going to do it your self on most of what you can do the savage is probably the easest. The Remington 700 has more choices of accessories (Stocks,triggers ETC)by three to one Base price is close to the same. The Mauser's make great rifles but require more smithing to make them accurate and usable (Such as drilling the reciever for scope mounts).Also stocks are getting harder to find. The Savage is best for the do it yourself type because you can change barrels/calibers within limits yourself with a minimum of tools (Barrel wrench and Head space gauge). Hope this helps.
