[QUOTE="kylehuffman, post: 1146517, member: 89784"] Currently I am shooting a Savage 11THXP in 6.5 Creedmoor. The rifle is stock (with a couple of modifications...no aftermarket parts), with a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 HS. This rifle will shoot .75 MOA all day long, with the occasional .25 MOA group, with a couple of my hand loads. My question to the group is this...is it worth upgrading to a Savage 11 Long Range Hunter in the same caliber? I have an opportunity to buy a used one for $630. The coating on the stock is peeling and the muzzle brake is stuck open, but other than that, it is in good condition. My goal, up until this rifle came available, was to put an aftermarket stock on my 11THXP, upgrade the scope base and rings, and put a slightly better scope on it. I can accomplish these upgrades for a couple hundred dollars more than the LRH will cost. What do you all think? Thanks in advance. Kyle [/QUOTE]
