[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 908052, member: 25383"] your dead wrong. The Savage F Class team uses standard production F Class Savages. But alas the standard Savage action is much straighter than the factory 700 action. Most I've checked come in at a about .0017" compound error. A typical Remington will be closer to .010" and with threads that are not strait. The savage threads are cut on the lathe that turns the action. Barrel quality is not even remotely close between the two. One looks like it was cut with a chisel. Kind of a moot point as both barrels need to be changed anyway. So if you take a good look at the factory bench shoots you will soon learn what the Savage line is. They tend to rule factory bench rest. And that's with their better rifles being banned in most clubs (long range series) The Remington 40X is also banned, but nothing else (could it be the good ole boys in action?) gary [/QUOTE]
