I'm a big fan of Savage, so I don't think you can go wrong there, but I'm not a fan of any manufacturers package deals, and that includes the 11/111 series. Some come with Nikon scopes, others with Bushnell (I've had a couple bad experiences with lower end Bushnells), and either way, I'd be surprised if the scope from either manufacturer was anything but their bottom line offering. Some don't have accutrigger, which would be a deal-breaker for me. Some also don't have accustock, which I'm not as sure about the value of, but it's supposed to be an improvement. I own an 11FCNS and put an aftermarket quality scope on it and I love the gun. Good luck. If you buy one out of this package series, watch the details closely so you know exactly what you are getting.
