I just think its silly how a certain someone accuses folks who shoot the Savage brand of rifles, of being "cheap" or "less intelligent" when that simply isn't the case. Like I have said before, dividing up hunters and shooters into classifications of rich and poor, will do nothing but hurt our sport as a whole. This childish "my guns better than yours" behavior isn't limited to him either, it can found all over internet gun forums, and at the shooting range, and it makes me wonder how early Americans harvested any kind of game, with such inferior weapons. If you will notice, I haven't resorted to trashing any particular brand (except for the Remington 710). Because I own rifles from most of the major manufacturers, and believe that splitting hairs is silly. Truth be told, all of the rifles being offered from the big companies (Browning, Ruger, Savage, Remington, etc.) are of almost equal quality. Perhaps 20 years ago, one brand could be chosen over the others because of quality, but that just isn't the case anymore. One should choose the rifle that fits them best, and flat out shoots the best, if that happens to be a Savage, then so be it, that doesn't make you any less of a shooter because you chose that brand name.
