I'm trying to decide which rifle to get. It will be used for mostly paper punching and some hunting. I will mostly be shooting 100-300yds never more than 500yds. Will the 5R barrel on the model 10P out weigh the advantages of the accessories on the model 10FCP-SR?
Model 10 P Pros 5R barrel http://grabagun.com/savage-arms-10-p-308-20-hvy-brl-blk.html Model 10 FCP-SR Pros Already has a scope base Threaded barrel Detachable magazine http://www.cabelas.com/product/Savage174-Arms-10FCP-SR-Non-Accustock-Tactical-Bolt-Action-Rifle/1954769.uts |

I vote for #1 if you are looking only at 20" barrels. The barrel on the FCP-SR is fluted, and does not seem to be quite as good of a shooter, plus they do not have the Accustock now. If you are shopping at Cabala's, and willing to step up to a 24" barrel, I highly recommend the 10T over either of those. Better velocity with the extra 4", plus it includes a scope rail. Nick |

I just bought one of these last week. They are on sale for $539 and they have a $100 rebate right now. Pretty good deal. All said and done I will have $470 after the rebate and taxes. |

I wonder if this applies to the left hand models as well. |
