I own multiples of both models and would choose the Savage 116 "bear hunter"model which comes from the factory with all the bells and whistles including the adjustable brake that can be turned on/off, over the Rem 700 every day of the week and twice on Sunday. It's a whole lot more rifle for the money loaded with what are aftermarket gunsmith only options for a 700. That and, the 700 trigger is crap out of the box so don't forget to take into account money to replace that. Savage site or not, It's a fact that the 116 bear hunter is way more rifle than any of the the 700s including the flagship 700 CDL SF and costs less to boot.
