Total Scores: Remington 770 (1), Savage 111 (4). I found my savage on clearance and payed $300 after Texas sales tax. Without an accutrigger the prices should be the same. They Savage 111 with scope AND accutrigger is priced at $443.74. They price the Remington 770 with Scope at $338. These prices are from Able Ammo, I shopped there when they first started and their prices are fair. Both have been shot of the same rest, same day and conditions. The winner is the Savage 1 MOA average (1/2 MOA best ever). Not the robust metal hardware of the Savage system. It mounts through a hole in the plastic stock with a small spring loaded clip to hold it in place. The Remington DBM system has shown problems in feeding and is finicky in seating properly. The mag solidly locks in place the hardware is metal and solid (note: this is the newer bottom release style) It is the same system used in all levels of Savage rifles. The quality, reliability, and ease of use goes to the Savage 111. You could improve the Savage stock by epoxy bedding, many have, I don’t know where I’d start with the Remington.

The Remington stock is very bad, not free floated, the action is poorly attached to the stock, the sling studs are molded in and feel flimsy. The advantage goes to the Savage for being free floated and pillar-bedded, but don’t count on it being free-floated with a bipod. Nikon Buckmaster 3-9×40 Riflescope (Matte, BDC)Īs you can see I’ve painted both. I had a Nikon on a 22mag so I put it on the Savage. The Savage came with a Bushnell 3-9x40mm, the Remington with a no-name 3-9x40mm.
#Custom savage rifle upgrade
(I should also point out that on the savage you can actually upgrade the trigger, not so on the 770, and if the Savage came with an accutrigger the winner would be the Savage. However, I feel no need to change the trigger on the Remington. I spent $85 on a Rifle Basix trigger and I’m glad I did. The stock trigger on the 111 was heavy and I disliked it. The trigger on the 770 is pretty good, not as good as some premium rifles I’ve shot, but a very respectable trigger. So for the stock trigger on the 111 vs 770 the winner is the 770. The 111 did not come with Savage’s much praised accutrigger, but it also came at a clearance price that I couldn’t pass up. I feel as though it would eventually break under use. OK that’s not a real word but the 770 does feel like pot metal to me. The 111 action is far superior in smoothness and solidness. The 770 is a 3-lug bolt with a shorter throw than the 111’s 2 lug bolt. The nice thing for comparing these two rifles is that the bolt lengths are about the same. Both have more than proven themselves as excellent hunting cartridges over many decades. Basically the 270 is a necked down 30-06. Savage Rifle Parts and Accessories by AmazonĢ70 vs 30-06: No I’m not going to go into the pros and cons of each. These are both package guns that are long action, came with cheap scopes, plastic stocks, detachable box magazines (DBM), I believe the 770 is a 20 inch barrel and the 111 is a 22inch. The Remington 770 in 270 (a kid’s in my youth group) and my Savage 111 in 30-06. I’ve had the ability to compare hands on two low cost rifles that are close to the same price and came with almost identical features. For example the Ruger m77 is hated by many, but my Dad’s 7mm Rem Mag is one of the most accurate rifles I’ve ever seen, although a 257 that I bought used was crap. You read a lot of opinions on rifles on the internet from people who probably have never shot the guns they are bashing.
