RE: Savage 93R
I have a Savage 93R17HMR with a heavy barrel and it is a complete tack driverat 100yds. I can put a group of 3 bullets touching at 100yds. They are rediculously accurate. I definately suggest one. I also have a 10/22 and it comes nowhere near the 93R17 accuracy wise. IfI had my choice it would be the 93R17.

RE: Savage 93R
The 93Rs are all 17 caliber. The 93Fs and Gs are 22 mags. No model 93s chambered for LR. You would be looking at a Savage Mark II for a LR, which is pretty similar. They're good, accurate guns, but can be picky on the ammo they will feed. I recommend the cheap Federal value packs from Wal-mart, they give me the least problems, and Golden Bullets seem to give me the most. The 10/22 can be accurate if you get the full sized one, and they're great fun and can be upgraded easily. Just depends on the action you want, bolt or semi-auto.
