[QUOTE="Scott S, post: 222366, member: 11324"] I will be buying a 30-06 in order to rechamber it into a 338-06 AI and was wondering which of the two rifles would be a better platform. The Remington comes with a 24" barrel. The Savage comes with a 22" barrel but they will build me a 116 FHSS with a 24" barrel. They would cost me about the same but I was wondering which would give me a better stock, action, and overall performance. I'm trying to do this on a budget and avoid custom rebarreling. I would really like to just rechamber one of these two rifles and see how well they shoot with the factory barrel and factory stocks. I could probably also afford to bed the action but that would be about my financial limit. Thanks for any advice. Scott [/QUOTE]
