I'm buying a 300wsm. I used to own a browning a-bolt and loved it. However I have heard a lot of good things about Savage Amrs with there acu-triggers and accuracy over all. And there prices are almost half of that of the brownings. Which would you choose or is there another brand that you prefer. Money isn't really a factor. I want the goods, lol. Thanks

you can't really go wrong with any of the "name brands".  you have to factor in aesthetics, price, and personal fit.  that is something to do at your local gunshop/sporting goods store.

If you have any intentions of building a semi-custom, I would buy a Reminton 700 SPS and send it to Hill Country and let them accurize it.

They do world class work.  I have three and all shoot under .300.

The 700 has far more aftermarket parts available and is probably the best factory made (mass Produced) rifle for the money.


The Savage would be my second choice, but would have to buy a glass stock and throw away the plastic tupperware stock.

Personally, I don't think you can beat a Savage dollar for dollar.

I have two, a 110FP in .30-06 and a 10FP in .308.  I have each one in a Choate Varmint stock.  The look good and shoot great.

This is a picture of the 10FP:
