[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 2750432, member: 12443"] Well there is no doubt that a big reason for the popularity of Savage is because they are easy to work on by do it yourself gunsmiths. There are numerous companies offering things like pre chambered barrels for them for example. And the barrel nut setup they have allows for a handy person to install them with a minimal ammount of tools and experience. They have become so popular for that reason alone, that other manufacturers have copied the barrel nut setup, at least for rebarrel purposes. The big question/argument is are they capable of handling some of the larger cartridges out there today. There are very qualified people who say they are not. And also those who will argue with them over it. I currently have 5 Savages, the largest being a 25/06, and i like and enjoy shooting all of them. I have in the past owned a few others, the largest being a 300 Win mag, and i grew to hate that gun. [/QUOTE]
