    I would have to go with my browning abolts( 300win and 338win) or my Sako M-995 (30-378). The sako is so smooth and brownings have the 60 degree bolt throw and they all shoot really good.

    Re: Favorite non savage rifle

    There are rifles out there that aren't savage? ;D I'd have to split this one between bolt and semi-auto. Outside the savage my fav bolt gun would have to be the Swiss K-31's. For a semi I'd have to go for the old M1 Garand. Love that thing. Bang x 8!! PING!!

    Mine is my Remington 700 LH LSS in 338RUM. It was a present to myself when I passed the Professional Engineers exam.

    With 225g accubonds it shoots a single hole with a moderate charge of H1000.

    Mine would be a toss up between my Federal Ordnance M1A and my Remington XP 100 converted into a rifle.

    Browning A-Bolt Medallion in 270 Win. It was my 10th anniversary gift. Got a few deer under its belt in the 8 seasons I've carried it.

    The left handed Model 70 in 375 H&H at the top of this picture. A close second is the left handed Montana Rifle Co-actioned 6.5x284 that is on the far right of the photo.

    If you can't tell, I'm a lefty.

    My two favorite right now, 338 Edge repeater on a Lawton 7000 action flute 30" 9.4 tw Rockcreek, DE Brake and Manners MCST stock. It now wears a Sightron 8-32x56LR.
    The second is a blue printed 700 SA 260 REM 23" flute #3 Broughton 8tw, fluted bolt and custom camo HS Sporter stock. It has a Weaver V16 on it but am saving for something else.
    Third would be a stock CZ452 American that out shoots everything i own, even my Savage.

    Re: Favorite non savage rifle

    My Finnish M28/76. It is a semi-relic with a receiver dated 1906. That rifle can f-in shoot. It likes Sierra .308 175 Mk's on top of 4895. Tried the 200 Mk's, it reminded me real fast how hard those things can really kick. The diopter sights are a hoot too. I think I like them better than scopes. I like my PSL too. And my other Nagants, oh, and my Marlin 917v, and my...(have so many). I don't think I really have a favorite, I love them all. But the Finn has to be the top- Non Savage.

    p.s.- I think I have the most fun with my slingshot. Can't hit crap with it but it is fun.

    Re: Favorite non savage rifle

    I only own one non-Savage centerfire. Its a 95% condition, 1960 made, Remington 742 Woodsmaster in 30-06. Checkerd Steel butt-plate, light weight, and kicks like a mule. Still wears the original Weaver K2.5 in Weaver mounts. Sounds nice, but horrible trigger, and I have never gotten better than "minute of broad side of a barn" with it. It was my first centerfire rifle and will always be kinda special because it got me started, and somehow made it through my late-teens and early-twenties without hardly a scratch before I just put it up.

    As far as rimfire goes, i would say my Mossberg 144-LS with original Lyman Peep Sights and my Remington 510 Target Master are closely tied. Both have been 1/2 MOA with decent ammo.
