I just bought my second one today! They are remarkable, with such crazy low prices.

i agree 100% and they have stevens

I agree totally, they are shooters at a really cheap price. Some don't have the fancy looks of the more pricey guns but hey looks don't kill accuracy does.

I don't like the word (cheep) when discussing Savage! Bargain suites them better. I once read an articial in a shooting magazine about the Weatherby Varmint Master. The wrighter of this articial bragged to no end about the extreme quality of this rifle, the accuracy and how deadly it would be on chucks, and P dogs. In the little table where he listed the accuracy results, only one load made 1moa, and the rest went to almost 2moa. And at over $1200 all I could do is laugh. I was supprised he was honest enough to print those groups, hell my Marlin 45-70 will do better than that!

the gun market is 10 times more appealing with the savage line out there. Spectacular guns designed to be workhorses. Haven't met a remington that can't outshoot a savage without costing over 1000 dollars. My stevens 200 can shoot .4 AVERAGE groups with cheap 45gr WWB JHP ammo!!! I put a nikon monarch on this sic little tacdriver and coated the stock in camo masking tape - something that stiffened it up immensly. The monarch is the perfect addition. I couldn't be happier! The stock trigger can be adjusted quickly and to a great hunting level. I don't see what the big fuss about them is.

I'll never buy anything but a savage. great BARGAIN for unbelievable accuracy. these people really care about their guns.

I like my Savage a whole lot & its a geat shooter & it was a exellent price- Marked down even - It was $250 in stainless steel/synthetic stock/scope( its a little older so it dosnt have the ajistable trigger tho)
I may have to get anotherone or one of those stevens sometime in a different caliber.

I was looking for a 22-250 about a year ago. A buddy at work kept bragging on his Savage. He took me out one day to shoot. When I went comparing prices, I could not turn down the Savage. After having it for about 6 months, I have gone and bought to more of their long rifles.

No comparision for the accuracey and price.

I have. It's called a Remington 700P Light Tactical Rifle.

They are capable of one hole groups at 100 yards and 0.6" groups at 200 yards with factory ammo.

Savage's are very nice and accurate rifles for the money.

My sentaments as well. I own an Amercian Classic and the 10ML-II ML and love both of them. I know that there are other makes that can perform as well and better is some circumstances, but I like my savages.

I as well love the hell out of them. I still have one barrel purchase to make to have the whole set of 12 FV's. It is remarkable that the do-it-yourself can change barrels, bolt handle, bolt face, and just about everything else without having to pay someone else to do it for them. Buy one action and you have a handful of calibers to choose from that you can put together yourself.

I have yet to see a Savage that won't shoot under 1.5"

Ditto!! I plan on buying one in the 7mm-08 caliber for deer.;)

Just about every Remington I own, and all $600 or less. Plus they look a hell of a lot better. Take that back I have a thirty old model 760 pump that seems to have an eight pound trigger that only shoots 1 1/2 to 2 moa.

RE: savage
 
rcw280, While I was looking at guns and finally ended up buying a Savage, I really didn't think the Remington 700 SPS lookedany better than the Savage. I thought the fit and finish of the Savage was better.

But, beauty is subjective and in the eye of the beholder. If it weren't we would all own the same gun and drive the same kind of car. That would be boring.

Brutalattack, what did you pay for your Remington.

rcw280 11-10-2006 07:32 PM

RE: savage
 
I am talking overall the 710 does absolutly nothing. But I still say even the sps is better looking than any Savage.

but as you say this is no different the Chevy and Ford wars.
