So I am intriqued by the Savage 10FCM Scout Rifle. .308, scout rifle forward scope mount...and the really intriguing thing is that it comes with a rear apeture sight...not sure how good...but with my eye-sight, I am bound to shoot better with that than any leaf or buckhorn type sight mounted on the barrel.
Love the Marlin 336 of course and I know there are excellent after-market apeture sights for that and that's the way I'd go there. Not much anybody need say about the 336...can't go wrong.
I am looking for sort of an all purpose truck gun, farm gun, SHTF repeater with some oomph. Kind of a "one gun" kind of a thing. Semi-autos are a whole different thought process for me - saving money for maybe an FS2000 or maybe the Sig 556.
So how about the Savage 10FCM? Other than the 4 round capacity, this seems like about the only stock bolt-action functional equivilent of something like a 336. Anybody familiar with the Savage 10FCM? Any thoughts on the gun?
