RE: SAVAGE 110
I purchased two Savage 110's for my sons, both in a .270 Win. I chose the 110 for three reasons....#1 Price Point, #2 Accuracy out of the Box, #3 Detachable Mag.
Right out of the box, both these guys shoot tight groups, even with the cheap Simmons Scope that was included with the package.
Also, I have seen guys lightly sand the synth stocks to take out the mold ridges and even paint them, where they looked like a $300-$400 stock.
