[QUOTE="Jcann, post: 2971835, member: 33119"] You're missing the whole point. He wants to start shooting long range. 750 yards is well within the envelope of a 308 shooting 168gr bullets. A 1:12 twist will work just fine for this. He also wants to possibly build up later on so a Remington platform would be better suited for this. You don't need a 300wm to shoot 750 yards or even 1000 yards. Any of the 6.5 chambering will accomplish this and give up very little to a 300wm ballisticly. He hasn't mentioned if he reloads or not but he can choose match ammo from Black Hills, Hornady, Winchester, Prime Ammo, Copper Creek, etc.....etc. I agree with you that the savage is a fine weapon but you'll never get out of it what you put in it [/QUOTE]
