[QUOTE="frequent misser, post: 485067, member: 5295"] I can say I have experience with both in several calibers. Overall I can say you can probably flip a coin. In the savages I have loaded for and shot the 6.5x284 and several other calibers in different models. All shot less than moa easily. Currently I am having a 7stw built off of a savage long action. In the weatherby I have shot the 300 weatherby and it was a 3/4 moa rifle with nothing but factory ammo, I am just starting load development for it. The others were actually Howa rifles. One in 308 and one in 7 mag. Both are 1/2 moa with handloads and shoot just about anything prety well. I know there is a pretty good price jump going to the submoa and I can tell you that I am not sure it is entirely worth it as I have yet to see a vanguard or a howa that didn't do it. If I were to pick an action to build off of I would probably favor the howa or vanguard. I am building one on a savage just because my howa shoots to dam good not to burn the barrel out on first. As someone else posted the triggers on the vanguards and howas are adjustable and I have had no problem tuning them to a crisp 2 lbs and I am no gunsmith. Just my .02 to mull over, clear as mud right...... [/QUOTE]
