[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 1879075, member: 112413"] Just finished another semi custom yesterday, my smith finished the work and today I put all the pieces back together to begin load tuning. This one is a model 10, basically a 110 but a short action. I love these guns, its not like diesel in a vette at all (poor comparison) its like a basically strong, accurate action with no attempt to appeal by status or name. Doesn't fit like a handmade custom for sure.......but it doesn't cost like one either :) If the action functions without problem and the floating bolt head adjusts for any lug misalignment, and the headspace is precise, any changes made to perfect the trigger or skim bed the pillared action just enhance the result. What is that result? ACCURACY I don't care if its not a hand assembled head turner with the best parts. Its the target's...... will it shoot with the best rifles out there? Yes it will, I'm an accuracy junkie, and thats where the rubber hits the road for me. I know that's not what a lot of shooters care about and I give them full admiration and respect for the beautiful guns they own and shoot, credit where credit is due. At the range however its run what you brung and there the groups speak for themselves. I like the savages and tikka's and tuned 700's that deliver lights out accuracy and pack a lot of bang for the buck. [/QUOTE]
