[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 5070, member: 25"] MATT, I had the opportunity to shoot a couple of Savage tactical .308's a while back on a course. Here are the opinions of several very experienced shooters - the triggers were not acceptable (this has been fixed with the new factory trigger available), the cheap plastic stock was marginal (this can be fixed with the great McMillan A-3 stock option), overall the rifles were reliable and accuracy was at or just better than 1moa out to the 1000 yard range we were firing on. The new model with the McMillan stock and improved trigger should be a very good entry-level LR rig, might be a little big and heavy for any carrying during hunts, depends on your opinion of what is "heavy". Check out the Ken Farrell mounts for the Savage and maybe a Bushnell Tactical 3200 10x, Warne Maxima rings and you are ready to go. Check out Black Hills Ammo also, their 175 match is exceptional. Save your brass, you will have to get into reloading to shoot enough to really enjoy that rig. [/QUOTE]
