[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 291985, member: 4885"] Why do you think that price is the only reason anyone would purchase a Savage? I use my Savage 338Edge with a Joel Russo stock and NF-NXS as a practice platforn for my $4000 338AM that wears the same scope/reticle. I chose the Savage because I can change barrels on it without dealing with a gunsmith. It is a great practice platform and a great backup rifle. It shoots sub 1/2moa with the 338Edge pac-nor barrel as well as with the 300WSM barrel. It shot a .3moa group (the first trip to the range) with the original crappy tupperware stock before I put the new stock on it. Yes, the Accutrigger is different than the $225 Jewel trigger that the BAT based 338AM wears. But I have no problem with that. I have no problem with my Rem triggers, nor the Timney trigger on another of my Rem700's. I always do a little dry firing before using any of my firearms and can easily adjust to any of my triggers. In my opinion, an un-touched Accutrigger is much easier to shoot accurately than an untouched Rem trigger. AJ [/QUOTE]
