[QUOTE="Guest, post: 57012"] I to would make the trade , you can take the Savage adjust the headspace back a little "generaly 1/4 barrel turn" to tighten up the headspace a little and I would just about be certain that the Savage will shoot groups half the size of the Rem , PLUS you will be able to find great factory match ammo and the beloved Lapua brass is cheap for this case. And if things don't work out with the 308 its a simple deal to change barrels to say a 260Ai or 6.5-284 and then you would have a rig that would be easier to shoot out to 1000yds. But from my experiance ther heavy barreled 308 Savages have all be sub 3/4" shooter and some in the 1/2" range with good loads they like [/QUOTE]
