Savage got my attention also. I bought a used Savage 6br benchrest years ago, and when looking down the barrel, thought it was probably shot out. Wrong. It shot great. Foolishly traded it away for another rifle "I had to have". Then the wild hair got me a couple weeks ago. I wanted another Savage Benchrest and got one in 308. This thing shoots FGMM 168's so good, I know when I start working up a handload, it will only get better.
IMO, Savage are great rifles!
I showed up at a Match with my FCP 308 Savage factory rifle. Everyone laughed at me. I was also shooting Factory Ammo! Double Laugh!
Shortly, after winning "overall", the entire match, within the year, over 1/2 of the line was sporting Savage Actions! True!
I have several Savage competition Rifles that consistently shoot 1 MOA @ 600 yards!
Anything from 223's, to 338's! 308 was my favorite caliber as I shot the F/TR class most of the time.
I have custom built rifles also, Kelby's and Bat Actions are on these builds. My Savages hang right in there with these "expensive" rifles!
