[QUOTE="TestPilot, post: 388836, member: 24682"] Thanks Mopar440...I'll investigate the Target a bit...Who are you referring to when you mentioned the guy that builds custom savages for $1500? I don't really know what range I'm looking for...I'll use it for target initially to get a feel for LR shooting and will also be going after a pdog or two. My thoughts initially were to just get a good setup that was accurate and built in a way that I can expand/modify when that seems appropriate. From reading, it seems the savage action offers a pretty good starting point and with the apparent ease of swapping out barrels with that action it seems attractive. I don't know what to make of all the different stocks. I definitely will want to put a bipod up front for the pdog excursions. Can you explain what an "anti cant" and "Cosine" indicator are and how they are used? Probably something to do with keeping things vertical I'd guess. Also, back to stocks a minute...is bedding pretty much a given to do? Do most setups use a fully free floating barrel? I've read about some that have a contact point at the end.f Appreciate all the info... [/QUOTE]
