I got a new 783 chambered to 223 and looked it over. I noticed a
lot of similarities to my Savages. Overall I was pretty impressed
with it, although it had the wrong barrel on it. It had a 14 inch
twist barrel, and it was supposed to be 9 inch. Right now the
gun has been shipped to one of their maintenance locations to get
the correct barrel installed.

Anyone else try the 783 and compare it to the tried and true Savage?
If so, what was your experience like?
