Hey All;
I've decided to try and get into a bit of long distance shooting (up to 500 yards) and had been doing research on a good beginner rifle for the past couple weeks. With my local gander store closing i had the option to get something for 15% off advertised prize and had looked at several in-store options. I had my eyes really set of getting a 6.5 t3x and putting it into a KRG bravo or something similar; but then online they had a savage 10 stealth marked down to $720 and it seemed like a good deal for already being in a chassis. I decided to jump on the deal but after searching the forums for awhile it seems like every time a Savage is mentioned it kinda gets shit on... Did i make a mistake getting a 10 stealth and should i cancel my order before i pick it up from the store?
EDIT; well I decided to cancel my order for the savage and go with my original plan of the tikka; I was able to grab one in 6.5 for $540. I’m sure the savage would have been perfectly fine for what I was gonna use it for; but I absolutely fell in love with the tikka action.
