[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 131093, member: 1951"] My opinion is that the Savage will better meet your needs out of the box. I also thing a slightly better scope is in order. Last, bag the bipod. Savage 12BVSS 308Win or 300 WSM $600 Super Sniper 10x42 RRPA $300 TPS Rings and Bases $140 Sorry, I'm $40 over. You will needs some good sand bags or another type rest to complete this rig. I like the Caldwell bag sets, but don't own one. The Savage will shoot rings around most stock 700's. It is in the design. Button rifled barrel, pivot head bolt, Pillar Bedding(Still needs bedded), heavy laminate stock, and long heavy barrel. Also, the accutrigger is good. At 1.5lbs, it is about right for this type of rifle. The Super Sniper will have more adjustment and has a great reputation for repeatability. It also has the needed adjustment range. Not all scopes can get on at 100 yards and 1000 yards. [/QUOTE]
