[QUOTE="Unofficial Gun Addict (UGA), post: 980973, member: 81139"] Both guns have produced excellent results for a vast amount of hunters/shooters, which is why this question is a tough one. The previous responders nailed it on the head.... Remy has an incredible amount of aftermarket accessories and the savage allows you to take part in the process of changing barrels etc on the fly, without having to go to a gunsmith. The question is... Which appeals to you more? I personally have both and have had excellent results from both. One caveat though... There are always going to be some lemons produced. Of the 4 savages I own, the last one (a 308 hog hunter) is barely capable of putting factory rounds into 2" at 100 yards, this after trying 12 brands of ammo. The best was Nosler match grade 168s at 1.99". The other Hog Hunter I own in .223 will do .3s all day long at 100 yards with factory ammo. My rem 22-250 will shoot dime-sized groups consistently with Winchester white box at 100. So, whatever you get, we'll just hope that you get a peach... And not a lemon. [/QUOTE]
