[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 1010931, member: 34084"] From an optics mounting perspective, I prefer Savage receivers because they have a cylindrical mounting surface with a single radius of curvature for front and rear. Bases tend to fit well all the time. The result is minimal stress imparted through the mounts to the scope. Remington 700 actions have different radii for front and rear, and there is some variation in the receiver dimensions that can make bases fit poorly. To make certain there is no stress in the scope mount, bases should be bedded. [/QUOTE]
