  1. Great advice from everyone, thanks.
  2. Thanks for the info. I think I'll go with the remington. Still looking for 308 though. Just stopped by local Gander Mountain and they had lots of used 7mm, but no 308. Another question, should I be looking for a remi with a detachable magazine or is that something that I can easily (and affordably) modify on my own later? Thanks!
  3. Hey guys, just want to mention up front, this is a great forum. I've picked up a lot of info prior to getting my first rifle. My question is, what do you guys recommend a Savage or a Remington. Basically I'm looking for a rifle that's a decent shooter out of the box but also something I can build onto. I'll also be hunting so I'm looking at a .308. But long term I'd like to start shooting at some ranges in the Denver area and get more familiar with the long distance shooting sport and enter some competitions. I've seen the cheap start up rifle thread and I'm wondering how important is it to have the detachable magazine option, since Savage has some really nice rifles i.e. http://www.savagearms.com/10fphsprecision.htm Or should I just pick up a remi 700 and start there? Also, remington says they have a short action and a long action in the .308, which one is better for competition? Any and all thoughts are welcome for this newbie to the sport. Thanks!
