    Savage Hunter vs. Savage Varmint

    Ok everyone. Savage seems to be shooters right out of the box. US made! and the Accutrigger is getting rave reviews. $ for $ a great buy, or so I hear. Has any one compared the accuracy difference between their Hunter (22" sport profile barrel) to their Varmint rifle (26" bull) and their law...

    That is exactly what I am looking for. I am afraid that I have about 60 rounds to burn with the 87 grainers. With in 200 yds, they'll provide an ample high speed mineral suppliment for those ground pigs. I hope to work up some 100 grainers this coming weekend. I love the Knowledge that is...

    Thanks for the advice guys! Last nite I tried the speer combo in the field. Only saw 2 chucks and they were looking at me. I must say that I made out better than they did. They got their metal suppliments delivered high speed from 242yds (prone) and 216yds(sitting). I love hitting what I...

    Hello all, So much to ask, so little space... first some back ground. Some 25 years ago my Dad bought me a Rem 700 25-06 for my 17th birthday. The 22WMR was not enough. My family farmed 1500 acres in Western NY. (rolling hills, small fields) our primary interest was varmit control. With the...
