I'm not a Savage lover but a good friend, several years back, bought a Savage "package" gun with a scope. The Trophy Hunter XP I think. It's in 260 Rem. I removed the included scope. Dropped on a Vortex with external turrets. He shoots Barnes Vortex 120 TTSX factory ammo and it's shoots .8 moa out to 600 yds all day long.
