[QUOTE="BadKarma, post: 994389, member: 9274"] Looks like a nice Remington. 27.5 inches is a pretty long barrel and I'm not sure what advantage that would give you, maybe a little more velocity or maybe not. I think I would want a faster twist than 1/10 for heavier bullets. I have a 20 inch 1/9 twist and 69grains worth of bullet is pretty much it thus far. As far as a 1971 action I don't know that Remington 700 actions appreciate with age, theres only about 32 billion of them out there all looking and being pretty much the same. However If you like it and are good with the price I'd say go for it. The Savage, I have friends that own that rifle and they are supposed to be very accurate and well made. They are not a real expensive gun new off the rack. Again if you like it, buy it. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. [/QUOTE]
