codyhuntsaz Report post Posted March 8, 2016 I've been in the market for a while for a long-range rifle. This is going to be my first attempt at setting up a long-range rifle. I now have two to choose between and would like to get the opinions from some of you more knowledgeable guys. The first rifle I can purchase is a brand-new savage long range hunter 300 WinMag shipped to my door for $725. The other rifle is a Remington 700 Sendero 300 rum fired 46 times. The price on that one will be $1150 to my door. Which rifle would you suggest going with? No gunsmithing work done to either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Browns Report post Posted March 8, 2016 If you have proof the Sendero shoots sub moa I would buy it. If not I would go with the Savage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HuntHarder Report post Posted March 8, 2016 Buds gun shop sells remington 300 ultra senderos for $1087.00 shipped brand new. Add $50.00 for ffl transfer, and you are still cheaper than the used one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

codyhuntsaz Report post Posted March 8, 2016 Sendero 7mm mag. The sendero I'm looking at is used so can't choose the caliber unless I go with buds as suggested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaffer62 Report post Posted March 8, 2016 Howa 1500. Replace the trigger with a timney. mine shoots sub moa all day long. with a berger vld I am shooting close to .6 moa. in the 300 win caliber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted March 8, 2016 I have a savage lrh in 338 lapua though. No BS, shoots .25MOA. Sub .5" groups at 200 yards consistently. They do seem kind of "cheap" but for whatever reason, they really shoot well. Most bang for your buck IMHO 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5guyshunting Report post Posted March 8, 2016 Here is a 3 shot group my wife shot with a sendero 7mm mag at 750 yards. Not sure if all senderos shoot the same though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertBull Report post Posted March 9, 2016 Personally I would go with the Savage and not think twice. Put the $400 savings into the scope. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
