Did you say Ford vs. Chevy-or did you say Savage vs. Remington. Oh Ya, Savage vs. Remington. Here is the bottom line. Savage is popular for two basic reasons. The Savage is less expensive than the Remington, and out of the box most Savage's are more accurate than most Remington's. I did not say all, I just said most. Remington wins in the fit and finish area. I have shot, and have been around thousands of these rifles for over 30 years. This is the basic truth. Tom.
