[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1232810, member: 12995"] Don't fall for that Savage is better bullcrap. They're just mad because they ripped-off the Remington 700 and people figured it out. :D Sorry Frank, had to. :cool: Seriously though, I am a huge 700 fan. I do not like Savages at all. I worked at a gun store for a while (a REAL gun store, not a Cabelas or Bass Pro Shop or something like that) and that allowed me to handle and shoot just about all the brands available. Savage is one of the ones I never have and never will like. I don't like any Ruger after the M77 MKII rifles either, like the Hawkeye or Ruger American series. There's several others, but none that you listed. I'm with JE Custom an that a .260 Remington sounds like the perfect rifle. Here's my recommendation, if you can order one and have it sent to your local FFL dealer so you can do your paperwork... Same rifle, 2 different buying options...
