Hi guys.
Decided to get into the shooting sport and looking at Dick's Sporting Goods budget offering: Savage Mark II GXP rifle. It looks like it does not have accutrigger and heavy barrel and equipped with 4x32 entry level scope.
I know about accutrigger benefits, but what about not having heavy barrel? Is it really important for .22lr to have heavy barrel and would it significantly change the accuracy? I'm planning to use it as my training rifle and eventually build something heavier with .223 or .308 caliber.
Sorry, if it is a double post, I've searched forums and couldn't see much info about GXP package.
Thank you very much.
