What would you do?

[ZackOwns]

These are my two current set ups, nothing fancy.

First Remington 700 SPS Tactical 308 w/ B & C A3 Hook Stock and Millett fix 10x trs-2

Second Savage 10BAS W/ USO SN-3 3.2-17X TPAL Barrett Prototype ret.

So both rifles are in 308. I've only put maybe 300 rounds down the Savage and since day one it preforms stellar. The Remington on the other hand it took some time to get use to but now I'm shooting just as tight @ 100 yards using 150g American Tactical as I am with the Savage using 168 SMK's I've been thinking about it a lot lately and don't really see the point in owning two bolts chambered in the same caliber so I'm considering parting with the Savage. Do you guys think it would be better to off the Savage and dump the money back into a make over for the Remington? Or off the Remington and just buy more ammo? Or another route I've considered is going with some type of 300WM or a 6.5 Rifle all inputs are welcome.

Keep them both, make the Remmy a 260...

I have a Savage 10fp and love it, so I would say if you had to get rid of one the remmy.

What size groups does the Remington shoot? If its shooting 1/2 Min. groups then I would sell the Savage and put the money in a better scope. If its shooting 2 Min. groups then I would put the money in the gun. Either way I would sell the Savage, but thats just me.

A better scope? I have a USO.. lol I were to sell the Savage the USO isn't going with it that's for damn sure.

Anyways the rem holds 1/2 to 3/4 min groups

Another option...keep the Savage for your 308 & buy one of the good aftermarket 260 (or other 6.5mm) barrels for it & swap out as you see fit.

Re chamber the remmy in 6.5

Buy a safe, or trade for one.

That's actually a great idea, I should do that.
