[QUOTE="Riptide, post: 651575, member: 29005"] I also have had great success and accuracy with Browning, but I've stayed with the A-Bolt. Sure, I danced around a few X-bolts and held hands with them and maybe saw a movie or two, but I've found as a general rule that when something is "new and improved" it just means that the company found a way to cut corners in manufacturing without sacrificing too much performance...and to me, the X-bolt just feels like a cheapened A-Bolt. That's my personal opinion though. There's a high chance that the rifle you're looking at will do exactly what you want it to do, right out of the box. However, as was stated earlier, because of the relative nastiness of barrel swaps, I will probably be buying more Savages in the future. I think that's the primary reason why smiths don't particularly enjoy working on Brownings. As far as Savage goes, I like the accutrigger (not everyone does), and the flexibility and changing of calibers is a real bonus...but I won't be selling any of my Brownings, ever. [/QUOTE]
