I wasnt trying to say you couldnt shoot, that just goes to show how different two identical rifles can shoot, my SPS is a sweet heart at the range. I have two of the newer Savages with the accutrigger, bought them at Wal-Mart, got the combos for like $350, although I like my Remingtons and Rugers better you can not argue with the accuracy that you get out of the Savages.
