Alright friends. A lot of you love Savage for precision rifles and have steering me away from more expensive Remington options. It does seem that I can get a lot more for my money with a Savage. So let's run through an intellectual exercise:
Help me build the best precision Savage with a budget of $1700.
- Assume rifle is new-in-box
- Caliber is .308 winchester
- Must be capable out to 700 yards
Walk through what YOU would buy in terms of the NIB rifle model/configuration, optics, rings and mount, stock (if changed), and other items (ex: bipod, sling, whatever you deem necessary). The more details, the better. If I like the build, I may literally buy it in the next few days. Your reasoning would also be appreciated, especially if comparing to alternatives (ex: scope 1 vs scope 2). I want to understand why. Justify your choice.
Thanks in advance to all who participate.
