Hey guys,
Long time lurker. So I've got a dilemma, I'm between these two rifles because I just 'need' another one! I've decided on 30-06 for the chambering. Now, I know both of these companies have a pretty good following and reputation. However, the Weatherby I haven't been able to read many reviews on. The regular vanguard, sure, but not the wilderness. I love the way it looks, and if the stock is similar to the one on the regular Vanguard, I liked it when I picked it up.
If I were to go with the Savage I'd likely get the package rifle and just upgrade the stock due to the price of the package vs. one of the other 116 models.
Before anyone mentions Tikka, I have two already and I like them, but I really miss having a two stage trigger. So, this rifle will end up filling that want for me.
I'm really hoping to hear from someone who has owned a Weatherby Vanguard Wilderness to see if they liked it. I'm also open to other suggestions, given they have a two stage trigger and are within this price range.
Thanks guys!
edit: I guess I should really mention that I'm looking to hunt with the rifle. Thanks again.
