Good afternoon all,
I am giving very strong consideration to the Savage 10 PC in 308 but I have read and heard from multiple sources that the stock has an issue with getting very dirty very fast and will not clean up with soap and water. i like this rifle for the 1 in 10 twist, bedded Accustock, three swivel lugs and the DBM.
My 2nd choice is the Remington 700 SPS tactical AAC-SD, it also has the 1 in 10 twist but the Houge Overmold stock (Same as the SPS Tactical just a different pattern I think) can impact the barrel when using a bi-pod or resting on a sandbag (referenced from Sniper central on the 700 SPS Tactical) and no DBM , the 3rd choice is the Savage 10fp with a 1 in 10 twist, three swivel lugs but it has a standard stock and internal magazine.
I am not looking to upgrade any time soon since it will take everything I have to get the rifle, rail, and glass. So upgrading the stock would far down the road.
I know, I know another Remington/Savage thread, but I am mostly looking for someone with the 10 PC to ring in about the stock and maybe a range report? Any and all feed back on all three would be great! Thanks in advance for your help and sharing your wisdom.
