[QUOTE="Ktomlins, post: 655319, member: 47816"] As I mentioned in a previous post, communication and customer service are a real problem at SavageGunsmithing. The smith's wife apparently handles the business-end of things and quite frankly (as nicely as I can put this) isn't terribly effective. I'm not entirely sure she is very computer literate and seems to read their company email only occasionally (weeks seemed to pass between email checks). And even then, you may get a response, OR you may not... I finally received my post-work rifle (almost three months and a new emergency backup rifle later </ouch> ) and I have to say that the smith's work appears to be good so far. The "accurized" rifle shoots well now. The labor costs were pretty high, and I wouldn't really recommend buying a scope or other accessories from them due to the relatively high prices. If you have [B]ABSOLUTELY NO DEADLINE[/B] and are willing to pay for the somewhat costly services, they appear to do good work. SavageGunsmithing [B]MAY[/B] be worth the frustration [B]if you don't require any communication[/B] from them while they perform their services on you gun. I'm happy with the rifle, but dealing with this communication blackhole located in Driggs, ID was VERY irritating. I will not be sending any more business their way. [IMG]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/images/icons/icon9.gif[/IMG] P.S. I asked a post-sale question a couple of weeks ago by email. Of course, I've gotten no reply yet and I doubt I'll even get one at this point... [/QUOTE]
