[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2750829, member: 8394"] The small shank issue brought about the worry over the fat boy cartridges, bigger shank seems to have fixed that. Bighorn seems to make the thread design work... Only had one interaction with sss, but I'm a quick learner so one was all it took. Come to think about it stockade was about as much fun to deal with and it only took one interaction.... Back on subject. Savage historically was the tinkerers rifle, in an age of prefits and changing market support I'd argue thats not the case as much anymore. They have several spacing differences as well as bolt releases, and an equal amount of bits and bots for bottom metal and mags. Heck even with stockys jumping in with some new models, you could name the aftermarket stock support on one hand. If you are a endless rifle changer it probably is worth while to go 700 platform straight out the gate. If you like the factory option and leave most stuff alone, they are probably worth it. They certainly seem to be relatively quick to adapt and adopt cartridges. On reliability and weakness.... I'm not getting rid of mine but I'll not be buying anymore, if that makes sense. [/QUOTE]
