RE: savage combo guns owners accuracy ?
"If" your would be willing to spend a bit more money, you could buy a used Valmet 412 combination gun. These could be had in many many calibers, and also "double rifle" bbls, 12 and 20 ga O/U shot bbls were also offered for them, along with the combination bbls.. The bbls have to be "fit" by a dealer, but once done you have one gun that will do it all!!!!
Valmet also offered a very well made all steel "quick attach" scope mount too, and later shot bbls had choke tubes too.
I use to sell and fit these bbls, and i still have a lot of them around.
I've shot a lot of game with my Valmet 412, and it's been a great gun!!!
