[QUOTE="bowhunter42, post: 620764, member: 32635"] I took my stock and added some square steel rods in the foreend and bedded from mag well forward to the end of the stock on my 116. not only did this stiffen the stock and add some weight, it also helped it shoot a little more consistant. this rifle will put a shot from a clean cold bore into the same group as a bore that has 50 rounds down it,poi is the same. I also have a best of the west signature series on loan from the best of the west, Let me tell you this rifle is a shooting machine, but my savage shoots just as well. I know not every savage off the line shoots this good and I do feel lucky but you have to remember this is with a pencil thin barrel. I bought this just to show that I could take a factory rifle and with very little tinkering turn it into a very affordable longrange shooter, but this thing shoots beyond even my expectations.
