Anyone got experience with these two creed moors?

Savage lightweight hunter vs ruger hawkeye?

The 6.5 will be my next bench rest target gun just don't which to buy?
 
if its going to be a bench rifle i would buy either a savage model 12 long range precision rifle.

or the ruger m77 mark 2 target rifle. the ruger has a 28 inch barrel and a two stage target trigger.

either rifle would be a good choice and most likely be around the same price.
 
I agree, bench rest target gun should have a heavy profile barrel among other things, so neither of your current choices vary good for the task at hand.

If wanting a factory target rifle, the Savage gets my vote.
 
Ruger makes their target rifle with a heavy 28" barrel in 6.5 creedmore but good luck finding one unless you' re willing to pay retail ++. For that kind of money you're just about in reach of a Cooper.
 
Most guys at my range end up reballeling their Savage not too long after they buy them. PITA to clean. Bought my RugerVT online and only paid 750. I dont reload but if I did I'm sure it would do much better.
 
For your purpose, go custom, my friend. Custom. There are MANY good custom 'smiths who are trying to earn a living and will value your business and give you good value in return. Talk to a handful or two of them.
