[QUOTE="liltank, post: 626247, member: 13275"] This sounds a lot like me 4 years ago when I was trying to decide. I was given the option of the Savage FV, and VLP. I couldn't make up my mind on a Nikon Buckmaster or the TRS-1. It was when they first came out with that particular scope. At the time you could only get it in 1/8" adjustments. I found a good deal on the Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 w/ 1/4MOA adjustments w/ extras. I went that way. At the time the FV was what I really wanted. Then they started making the VLP. I could afford it, so I went that route over the FV. Glad I did, but my cousin has had great success with the FV. I think you will be thrilled w/ any Savage you buy. By the way, the SPS varmint I was looking at, at the time could only be had with a 1:12 twist. That was the other factor for going Savage. Sounds like you have a good plan going. Stay the course. Just remember, to upgrade a Savage you only need a few hand tools. To upgrade a Remington, you need a good gunsmith. [/QUOTE]
