[QUOTE="C Harrison, post: 1010596, member: 76871"] Great question. I have both, a Remington 700 and a Savage 110. The Savage is more accurate but the Remington was much easier to find parts for. They have both been redone to the point only the actions are the original parts. Savages tend to be easier to work on, as you can change barrels yourself with little effort. I agree that Savage has come a long way and if I were to start over, I would go with a Savage in .308. Save your brass, get a reloading book and insure you understand it so when you budget for reloading, you will be ready. When your shooting skills outgrow the .308, a mere barrel change will get you to .260 Remington and since you will be ready to load you own rounds, accuracy will greatly improve. Also, I tend to believe the Savage action is a little more robust that the Remington 700 action. Good luck on deciding and keep us informed. [/QUOTE]
