thanks for the help... its still a tossup and I see good things from the new buckhorn 209. Im just going to go to the dealer and pick up both and spend some time getting the feel for each. Both have their ups and downs. I like the no cleaning of the Savage and it kinda feels like a rifle. The Pro hunter still has that ML'er feel but the best balance of any I have held. I think the Savage will outgroup the pro hunter, but 1/2th inch is no big deal to me. Yeah im picky, but I will settle for 1.5inch groups vs 1inch. Once again, thanks for the help and im going to try and pickup the laminate stock Savage and see how I like that one before buying.
