Just curious as I own a savage 10PC in .308 and have a blast shooting it. Ive also owned a Remington in the past, but just wondering what yall think? Models, experiences, problems, Ect.

Seeing as how I'm a college student, the Savage works just fine for my budget.

Wasn't this on the list of "things we never talk about" from a few weeks ago? Yet it keeps coming up.

i guess i didnt get that memo haha my bad

Does the PC come with the accustock or just the regular pillar bedded stock?

I have owned both.
For the money Savage rifles are scary accurate right out of the box, Even the cheaper ones. I will add that the Remingtons are usually good to go as is. Some of the Savages need a bit of fit and finish work.

I was shooting for more higher end guns such as the model 10 and 700 not axis and 770's

real "snipers" use 700's

Never owned a Savage so not qualified to compare the two, and have not stayed in a Holiday Inn Express

Though I dont want one because of the stupid accutrigger and the finish out I noticed the price of the Savages are creeping up in price with some "better" guns.

My local shop wanted $840 for that savage 10 PC....

Is that good? No clue on any of their guns

man i paid like 640 for mine a couple years back they have gone up in price. Great rifle but dang.

HAHA love it. Once you do make sure to update us on all you learned

I have shot a few savages over the years sighting in guns for others etc. They have all shot pretty good. The most accurate rifle I own is about a tie between a Cooper and a Remington 700 in 17 Remington. Both are sub 1/2 MOA rifles with groups often sub 1/4 MOA. Then there have been other 700s that would not shoot 2 inch groups.

This is really pretty simple. 20 years ago, Remington. Now, Savage.

I've never had a real good experience with Savages less than acceptable accuracy in a few and the one that was half way decent the famed accu-trigger would lock up on. Now that's not to say they are all bad but it's enough for me not to buy one, I like Remington enough that I'd take the chance of getting a shooter or not although I yet to personally see one that wouldn't shoot good.

I thinks the cheaper Savages give you a lot of bang for the buck.. Not sure about the higher end ones

Chevy vs Ford, and this topic has literally been beaten to death.

Redheads.

A Savage with the Accu-trigger is a sweet shooting rifle at a good price.

I think new Remingtons come with an impossibly hard trigger pull. I replaced on in mine with a Jewel & now prefer it over my Savage.

Either can be fine tuned to your liking, but I think out-of-the-box Savages have an edge.

Savage is a great rifle and extremely accurate, the only holdback
has been retained value..Whereas a Remington or Win. will hold a
higher used resale value. But if one is only wanting a value to
shoot with no intention of resale, it's the Savage hands down..
It is always somewhat cheaper than the Remington and will shoot
as well if not better, and they have a model that has a laminated
stock that is fairly pricey that's guaranteed to shoot..and they
do ...DD

^^^What he said^^^

I can tell you this much, I recently bought a Stevens 200 (by Savage) 22-250 for my 6 year old to use as her first centerfire because I didn't want to jump off the deep end because she will be getting my custom 6mm remmy when she gets old enough to shoot it. Now I am having second thoughts about letting her have it. I dropped a Rifle Basix trigger in it (the Stevens one was horrible) and it is laying 3 shot dang near one hole groups. I am still in shock of how accurate it is for the money.
