I'm looking at 2 affordable options for a .270, a Savage Axis or Remington 770. both come in a combo package with a Bushnell scope and a case. anyone have experience with either models in that same caliber?
Axis, the 770 is a POS.
The Sevens 200, Marlin XL-7, Howa, Vanguard, Savage 111, and Ruger American,and others, are all better than either
Good point,unless you're looking for a stainless rifle in which case the Axis can't be beat.The Sevens 200, Marlin XL-7, Howa, Vanguard, Savage 111, and Ruger American,and others, are all better than either and are only slightly more expensive. In 2months you will forget about the extra money and in 10 years you will understand how much of a bargain it was to spend $50 more today.
No track record on this either,and considering Rugers history of the last few years I fully expect a recall soon.Ruger American
