[QUOTE="green 788, post: 712675, member: 3781"] If both rifle brands are typical, the Remington will shoot very well... and the Savage will shoot better still. If you're ever going to build the gun, the Remington will probably be the better option, as that's the base that most 'smiths are familiar and most comfortable with. But if you want to shoot it as is, right from the box, the Savage is almost certain to be the better performer. Savages have button rifled barrels... a toggling bolt head that does not need to be lapped, the barrel nut makes for a more rigid barrel/receiver union (on average)... the lock time is shorter, it'll be pillar bedded and free floated... and the Accutrigger is pretty nice as well. The whole industry has been trying to catch up with Savage for about 10 years now... Dan [/QUOTE]
