New rifle
 

I am trying to decide between a Weatherby Vanguard ss and a Savage SS with accu-stock ,accu-trigger either will be 308 win. need a little help any opinions would be appreciated thanks chad

Either oughta do fine, though I might opt Savage myself.

buy both be done with it. LOL

Neither would be my first choice but between the two listed I would go with the Savage.

I agree that neither is the best of their class of budget priced rifles. Either would do the job - as would many other choices. Buy what feels right for you. Nobody else's opinion matters - including mine.

I'm planning on getting me a Savage in a 7mm-08 with the accu-trigger in a wood stock,blued barrel and a bolt-action...so I'm going to say I would go with the Savage Rifle! ;)

If you can see if you can go to a Gun Dealer and compare the 2 to see which one looks and feels better and price wise than make the decision!


What part of MO. You located in CHMA?

I am located about 12 miles from St. Joseph in NW mo.

Hey Chad 'ol buddy,Good to hear from you.Don't know exactly which models you are talking about.Are you going heavy barrel type or tactical?If you are and depending on your budget for this project try sniper central they have some really good stuff in the classifieds.....LOL some of them (The really bad boys get on up to 7 to 10 thousand).I know where there is a Remington 700 BDL Varmint 26" barrel like new for I believe around $700.00 If you are interested shoot me an E-Mail and I will see if it is still available.Was going to buy it myself but my money is funny right now.....Alton

Which one do YOU like better ???

I am going to buy the Savage model 16 FHSS Accu-trigger Accu-stock . chad

Chad,


I think you are going to be VERY happy.



I own the 16FCSS in .204 and I could not be more pleased for the $$$.

Gentlemen, I have a SAVAGE 10GPX in 7mm-08 that my wife bought me. I love it better than my old Remington Ive had for close to twenty years, Some food for thought.

Longhunter66....hows the accuracy on your 7MM-08 and whats the recoil like?I've been checking around some more and I'm getting closer & closer to buying a Savage 7MM-08 also! GTOHunter in Southeast Mo.

i came back from a local gunsmith with a savage 111 long ranger hunter prototype, holly crap i take back anything ive ever said bad about savage. i only got to take a look at some targets and the rifle itself. it was a 300 win mag

the specs on what i seen
26 inch shaw med contour barrel(under last years shaw/savage contract)
accustock withe a adjustable cheek piece
accutrigger
deep flat black finish throughout, maybe a cera coat

it would drive 5 210 grain smk's into a 1 1/4 inch group at 300! i know that aint like there f class rifles but heck it got less then half moa.

My choice would be the Savage!
