[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 980468, member: 61747"] LOL, wow.....opinions are like....... So I vote either. I have both. I like both. I prefer savage simply from the stand point I build my own for the most part and swap barrels around quicky. For example I have a 6.5-284, 204, 22-250, and 7-08 barrels on the table. I have a short action 110 with accutrigger that I use for the action and swap barrels around. At the last minute I decided to do the vortex challenge and needed a partner. My brother said he would do it so I threw that rifle together with the 6.5-284 barrel in about 15 minutes and went to the range to zero it. From a do it yourself process this is a nice feature for sure. My 700 BDL LA is smooth and never let me down. I love the feel of it when working the bolt and there is just something that fits me well. Where I don't have an opinion is on the accuracy or strength of either. From what I can see and understand both are strong enough and produce accurate results. The savage has a floating bolt head that supposedly doesn't require truing. All of my rifles shoot .5 or better so I have no clue if one is better in this accuracyt department or not from an action perspective. I will say that there are more options when it comes to remington aftermarket parts and stocks etc. Plus the custom action guys seem to copy the remington platform. If you really want a 500-1000.00 McMillian stock this is probably the way to go. [/QUOTE]
