[QUOTE="encoreguy, post: 981348, member: 6486"] I am going elk hunting this fall and I am going to buy a new rifle for the hunt. I have decided on a 300 Win Mag. (could be talked into a 7MM Mag also) and I think I have narrowed down my rifles to a Savage 110 HS Precision with 24" barrel or a Remington 5R with 24" (threaded) or 26" barrel. I am a Savage fan, I like the accu-trigger and accuracy for the cost. However I have heard good things about the 5R and I like the fact that it is stainless. In the end accuracy is my number one priority. I want to shoot at minimum 180 grain bullets but the 210's would be great if I can seat them properly and still get them in the magazine. I know all the guns are a little on the heavy side for hunting but after the hunt I want to use the gun for long range steel shooting. Which of the two would be your pick? If you say 5R, 24" threaded or 26" barrel? I have a Vortex 4-16 PST ready to mount on the gun. Thanks for you help! [/QUOTE]
