The weather has stopped me from shooting my 22mag as much as I would like to. I have a bunch of old injuries that prevent me from walking on rough terrain. I cannot use my 4 wheeler because it is tearing up my property.I've got a Savage 9317 wood stock with a 3x9 scope I paid $300 for new. Only shot it once but it put 3 rounds in the size of a dime at 100yds. Great rifle, just wish I had good feet to do all that walking.
What type of accuracy are you getting with the American?I have the Ruger American and couldn't be happier. The stock is very comfortable, the gun is accurate and is easy to carry in the field. The gun itselfcfeels like a center fire. Have read quite a few reports on poor QC with the Savage magazine. The Ruger is a solid and proven design.
