Considering trading my AR-10 for a bolt gun (.308)

[45/30-06OKIE]

Well, honestly that’s what I like to do as well. I’ve been a Savage fan, and I like the 700 sure.., but I build ALL my own firearms anymore. I don’t buy firearms off the shelf. Including pistols. My bench rifle is likely the extreme built Savage 110 you’ll ever see. It uses custom machined parts, some parts early all Savage owners have never seen & even some Titanium for good measure. It’s unique & definitely one of a kind.

I built a 25-06 Remington 700 and I tried to inlet the stock and jacked it up so now it's stockless at the moment. I'm probably going to get an MDT LSS-XL chassis for it to replace it. Idk yet actually...

I would advise getting a Tikka. No need to rebarrel, change stocks etc. I have hunted with AR's but much prefer a bolt action for hunting. I have owned many others but I really like my Tikka in 7-08. Many bolt actions claim to be sub-MOA . I don't know if any will shoot better than your AR or not. I don't think accuracy is your issue. As others say buy what you want and keep the AR.
