If I could only find the one about the blow up test.........

Some folks simply can't get warm and fuzzy over a Savage...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news..............

I have a picture of a Sako 85 that blew up, what does it prove?

That a Sako blew up.......

How was school today?

Hey you asked........

Then what would posting a picture of a blown up XXXX brand rifle prove?

And you are one with "common sense".

Rock on.......

And you are the one who thinks posting a picture of a blown up rifle will make your opinion more valid, because the blown up rifle happened to be of a manufacturer you dislike. How about providing your experiences with the Savage brand, and why you dislike it, instead of posting idiotic pictures and videos.

The blow up video was made just to hump up the Savage Queens.......purely entertainment, and it was pretty funny.

Per Savages, I need not taste a crap sandwhich to know it's gonnataste likecrap.

Much to that in the Big Picture.......

If Savage twists your crank then have at it, I'll not lose a seconds sleep over it, just don't compare the venerable model 700 to some ill concieved notion dreamed up by the Green Bean counters to compete with the Savage market share.

Can't blame 'em though, hell business is business, and a dollar is a dollar.

Maybe Leupy was hoping for a combo contract with their Rifleman series...who knows.

JFYI, I can like a Rem 870 but can't an 1100 or 1187, and you couldn't give me either one.

I'd also take a Kimber over any Remmy rifle on the planet, but since I can make a 700 shoot I'll save the extra loot for ammo...........
