[QUOTE="4mesh063, post: 54413, member: 941"] The only thing that scares me on the Savage is the extractor system. That just seems a little suspect when I look at it but I'm not experienced to say. I am looking at buying a couple Rems and a Savage so I may get a look first hand. All are new in a package deal. I have owned Remingtons in the past (all new) and my most recent purchase was in 1999. I am thrilled with the gun and have never had a problem with it. But for the prices, I'd own a few more. Just, after having custom barrels, I just can't bring myself to spend the money for a gun with a factory barrel again. The ones I'm looking at are a "deal" so I'm probably gonna strip them for the actions and throw the rest away. My Brother recently bought a 700 at Wal-Mart. A 30-06 for a project. Everything on it seemed to work fine, though we never fired it. To a certain extent, I think it's asking a bit much to buy a gun off the shelf and expect it to be a great gun out of the box as so many people do. [/QUOTE]
