My search preferences were for Accutrigger, Accustock, stainless steel, and detachable box magazine in .223 Rem. I have an EBR in that caliber, otherwise I might have gone for .22-250 Rem chambering. It turns out Savage has only one model meeting all those criteria. So it was an easy decision.

In .223 Remington (http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/16FCSS/). It will be a couple weeks before I get it and it's ready to shoot. I'm planning to top it with a Weaver 800360 Tactical 4-20x50 Mil-Dot Riflescope (http://www.weaveroptics.com/optics/tactical/) for paper punching and varminting out to maybe 300 yards. I wanted a first focal plain scope and I'm already somewhat familiar with the mildot system although the ranges I'll probably shoot at won't take full advantage of it.
