[QUOTE="cultivateitnow, post: 583639, member: 28677"] Since everyone started saying Savages shoot great I thought I would try a few. So far I've shot one savage and two Steven's. The Stevens are just plain bad. They wouldn't shoot good and the trigger pull is the worst I've seen in 30 plus years of shooting. The Savage was better but wouldn't hold a candle to any of the Remington 700's I've shot and the trigger was not even close to the lastest XMark Pro factory trigger out of the box. You hear much about the stock Reminging uses, but if you think that is bad try shooting a Steven's. Both I've shot from this year the stocks were soft and one was warps and touching the barrel. I keep wanting the Savages to do well, but so far I truely can say they do. In fact one I shot in 243 splits the case necks on factory rounds. I'm guessing it needs to go back to the factory. On the Remington side...I've not found one yet in 223, 22-250, or 243 that won't shoot a one hole group at 100 yards. It sure would be nice if they can get those $300 Stevens to shoot though. Believe it or not I'm trying to be nice to Savage. [/QUOTE]
