[QUOTE="biff's reloading, post: 2240967, member: 6078"] The old "savages are cheap junk" thing is gone. Dead. Literally 2 decades ago. Not sure why that's still repeated over n over short of egotism. Usually this is followed up by "evidence" comparing a $900 Remington to a $300 axis. Grab a nice stainless laminate/accustock 116 and a comparable 700 off the shelf sometime. both are top shelf, both are the same price, both have excellent quality control and factory service. Both are great factory guns. More than half the time the savage will outshoot the other. Theres better aftermarket for the rem, so if you like changing parts on your new gun, go that way. Why are we still bashing savage? Totally different company and rifles from the days of the old beater junk. Try comparing their low end guns sometime.... the cheap beaters they both import that 95% of kids going out this fall will be carrying. Those axis are actually pretty decent. The 783? Now theres a junker. [/QUOTE]
