[QUOTE="skyfish25, post: 1040755, member: 27125"] I have Howa 1500, but that would be the same as the Vanguard. I have about 3000-3500 rounds on mine. Its a 204 ruger heavy barrel. Never had that problem. Trigger is okay, but seems smoother now(probably at least 1000 dry fires as well). While it doesn't get abused like my hunting rifles(carried through rough terrain...), I do get some fast follow up shots on multiple prairie dogs very often. If you are looking for a solid inexpensive rifle, it is hard to beat. From Sweden I'm surprised you not looking at a Tikka. Savages are nice shooters too(at that price point), but the bolt throw I would not call smooth. I am on the second barrel. When you get in the right spot on prairie dogs, 300 rounds in an hour is hard in them. BUT fun! [/QUOTE]
