[QUOTE="spd67, post: 994453, member: 9008"] I think you have to ask yourself what purpose you will be using the rifle for. Is it going to be a hunting or sporting rifle. Are you going to be shooting matches with the gun or is it just to have for recreational shooting. The Remington action is one of the best on the market. I think for a multi use gun I would go with the 308 Savage because the .223 does have some limitations and the 308 is a better round in my opinion. Both Savage and Remington are great brands but the Remington will hold it's value more. you will also be able to find mods for the Remington more available than the Savage. You can Find a new Remington 700 for about 600 dollars and the Savage runs just a little cheaper. the Remington does seem to have a bit of a long barrel and the Savage seems to be set up more for a tactical use as opposed to a long range target gun like the Remington. I own a Remington 700 in 30-06 and love the gun. It is one of the most accurate guns I have ever shot. You need to decide what the use you need the rifle for and buy accordingly. Here is my Remington and some groups I was able to get out of it at 100 yards [b][Broken External Image][/b] Here is a three shot group all touching from 100 yards [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] another three shot group at 100 all touching [b][Broken External Image][/b] The Remington is as accurate as you can shoot it. Let us know what you decide on and good luck on your next purchase. [/QUOTE]
