[QUOTE="Predator 22, post: 1273569, member: 79364"] Thank You! I have tried to explain this before. All I get is "The floating bolt head takes care of that" I'm not a gunsmith but I do have a little bit of machining experience so I understand the concept. You can lap or "home true" the lugs, receiver face, nut, and lug to your hearts desire. THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY ARE SQUARE! Now to the op's question. I also think Savages are beyond butt ugly. But they do shoot. To do it RIGHT you will have about the same money in either one. The Remington will have more options and will probably have a better resale value. The savage will be way more user/diy friendly and the after market is coming on strong with products for them. I don't care for the tang safety but that's a personal preference. If it were me I would bypass both of them and buy a Stiller. Best of both worlds. Remington accessories and you can still do a barrel nut. [/QUOTE]
