I just joined last week, been doing a lot of reading, I must say thank you for all the info here. You people are way ahead of me with weapons knowledge. I bought my first Savage in June, an A22, mounted a cheap Bushnell Banner 22 4X20 scope on it. I really like it, shoots great out of the box. So last month I bought a 16/166 FCSS in 300 Win Mag, I mounted a Leupold VX-1, 4-12X40 scope on it. Have to say I love the 116.
