Why are you asking us for the Savage smokeless option? That is a powder option that only you can decide. Or are you considering only using blackpowder and/or substitutes with the Savage?
You also listed White Rifles? Please offer readers here a dealer name, address & phone number/website that has NEW (not refurbished)White Rifles.
In my non-smokeless opinion, life is grand owning a Stainless Steel, Laminated Thumbhole Omega. The Encores are wonderful if you desire purchasingtheir very expensive aftermarket barrel options.
Seems to me Cascade answered your question/challenge... and as always you just seem to have a way about you that is condesceding and rude to say the least... He wanted advice not put downs but you can't seem to do one without the other. Very sad...
I wouldn't hesitate (if money weren't an option) to buy any of them. But I will say what others haven't... the Savage and the White each have adjustable triggers, the Encore only with aftermarket parts. I own both the Savage and the White... as well as a Knight. The composite stocks on those Whites will probably be B&C stocks, very nice! If money was an issue I would go for the White... White Rifles the company is still operating, all be it barely, and the rifles all have a lifetime warranty and Doc White himself is a tremendous resource for advice and parts. As has been noted the UltraMag is the only rifle of the three that will shot sabots AND conicals effectively.
