I think that particular Savage is a GREAT option. I obsessed over building a .338 Fed AR for a long time vs buying the Savage and just when I was ready to pull the trigger on the Savage they dropped it from production. Of course I could probably find one on BG or similar, but the bubble kind of burst for me and I went on to focus on bolt guns instead for a while.big fan here-have used for hog hunting and it smacked the out of them
Have a Savage msr with 18” barrel (big fan of it as well, very light for an ar10)
150 Fusion msr round out of my 16” barrel 2721 fps/2465#
185 Fusion out of the 18” barrel, 2764 fps/3137#
Devastating at any ravage Id ever use it for as a hog round
Recoil as far as i’m concerned is negligible vs 308
imo what’s not to like? i like to hit the hogs hard and it does that very very well
I thought Savage had some great upgrades on their MSRs, but it looks like they have dropped them altogether. What a shame. Is this the one you have, the Hunter model?
