I'm looking to make my first Savage purchase and am looking at the 10BA or 10 FCP series in 308 win with a 24" barrel. I will be using it mostly for recreational shooting out to around 500 with the occasional day of stretching it further and possibly hunting. I have had the opportunity to shoot a 10BA once and man that thing hammers! My concerns with the 10BA are its heavy as balls and I would never want to drag that around in the field hunting (though I usually use 30-06 hunting). The weight is making me lean towards 10 FCP series as I dont think I would lose too much accuracy with the FCP. How is the standard FCP stock/chassis? If going the FCP route would anyone suggest going with the McMillan or HS Precision stock over the standard savage stock? Is there any major reason to just go with the 10BA besides it being tacticool as @#%!
