[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1273432, member: 2736"] +1 The savage action is no different than any other action when it comes to accurizing only the different things you have to do to get everything true. I have built many rifles on both actions and the final outcome is they both can be made to be very accurate if done correctly. When accurizing/Blue printing different actions each one requires different things to reach the goal of everything being true to the bore and on the bore centerline. In order to get the Savage true I find that I have to just as many things to it as the Rem action, And in many cases More. The bolt on the Savage is one of my issues because it has so many moving parts. (Not that this can't be overcome). I also don't like the looks and function of the barrel nut, so I eliminate it for reasons discussed on many previous post. After ether action has been properly blueprinted, neither will out shine the other in the accuracy department. so it just becomes a matter of what a person likes the looks of. Quality cannot be replaced with convenience. Being convenient to assemble is not a reason to bypass a very important step in the search for accuracy. The function of any action is to close the breach, so if everything is true and square, and the head space is the same, the chamber and barrel quality along with the ammo quality have the largest bearing on inherent accuracy. So the reason to accurized any action is to eliminate any detrimental effect it can have on the rifles accuracy so you can concentrate on other things that are controlling the accuracy of the rifle.
