You can do a search here for "Savage Scout" and come up with a lot of info.
Mine is pretty old, and I have been told that my information isn't current enough to be accurate, so take it with a grain of salt.
Mine came with a truly awful synthetic stock. In my experience, all Savage synthetic stocks are awful, but I have not handled a new one in the past five years or so and am told they have improved. But I am also told that Savage synthetic stocks have always been fine, which leads me to believe that some people have pretty low standards. The stock on mine was so flexible that you could pinch the forend between thumb and index finger and pull it away from the barrel by at least an inch. Upon firing from the bench or bipod, you could actually hear the forend slapping the barrel. Accuracy was in the neighborhood of 7" @ 100 yards.
I kept an eye out for a suitable replacement stock for several years and never found one. Eventually I hollowed out the plastic latticework that fills the forend and epoxied in a length of heavy deep sea fishing rod. I then free floated the barrel, leaving at least a quarter inch of space between it and the forend. This looks pretty bad, but it cut groups down to the 1.5" range.
Additionally, the magazines are well known for poor fitting. They apparently often come from the factory either very difficult to fully seat, or so poorly retained that they fall out of the gun. The latter was the problem with mine, which took a bit of tinkering to fix. It was possible at one time to have Savage fit the magazines to the rifle upon ordering. I do not know if that service is still available.
Mine did not come with a third sling swivel stud in front of the trigger guard, necessary for fitting the proper ching-type sling. This was easy to install, however.
The trigger is very good. There are those who insist Savage triggers are no good, but in my experience they can always be tuned by the careful owner and are completely satisfactory. The "Accutrigger" also works just fine.
The scope rail on mine eventually rattled loose. I LocTited it and have had no troubles since.
Overall it's been a fine budget rifle. If the stock truly has improved I would buy it again. If they still come with the flapping silliness they did a decade ago, I'd think seriously about the Ruger Frontier.
HTH!
