[QUOTE="flyin lizard, post: 482079, member: 10378"] Hello Mt, I have a Sav. mod.11 in 300wsm. As it came from the box it was a sub-moa shooter. I did do some customizing. The barrel that came from the factory was a pencil thin type so it would heat up after 3 shots fired 2 mins. apart, so I replaced it with a Douglas in varmint contour from sharp shooter supply, also a new recoil lug. Then put in a rifle basics trigger, Sav -1 I believe, and then dropped everything into a Bell & Carlson dura max stock. Topped it off with a Vortex Viper 6.5 x 20 x44 scope. I do not have a brake on it. If I do my part the gun is a half moa shooter. So far I have taken it out to 600 yds on steel and paper. This year will be the year that I really get use to it and have some fun.. I would not hesitate to buy another Savage. The great thing about a savage is you can do the work yourself over time, thus spreading out the cash out lay. Good luck and have fun building your gun.. [/QUOTE]
