[QUOTE="rcoody, post: 1273490, member: 91090"] I am a recent convert to the barrel nut clan Long.time rem 700 user I went to the barrel nut for the do it yourself aspect. Here is my take on the savage action. The cocking effort is ridiculous. Have.a target action at SSS being timed and trued as we speak. Hope Fred can improve it. The accutrigger is no jewel. Having Fred install his benchrest trigger. With a quality stock and aftermarket barrel the.rifle looks as nice as.any out.there. Barrel nut doesn't bother me. As far as trueing.rem 700 style it.just.isnt.needed. the.floating bolt head takes care of that. As.for.accuracy. results speak for themselves Remington quality has fallen off a lot.in recent years.. if i were to build another one i would just buy a trued action, mcmillian stock, remage barrel (preferably bartlein or kriegar) and.a jewel trigger and put it.together myself Next rifle i build will be.on the.mausingfield action from the.American Rifle.Company. It is a blend of all the best features of histories best rifles and uses savage prefits with a barrel nut. [/QUOTE]
