I HAVE A SAVAGE FCP MOD 110 AND I WISHED THEY WOULD HAVE A TACTICAL STOCK FOR IT SPEND OVER A GRAND AND GET A HUNTING STOCK COME SAVAGE ARMS REALLY EVERYBODY ELSE IS PASSING YOU UP BY MILES
The Blackhawk trigger on this rifle almost ruins the whole gun…worst I’ve ever felt on any AR.
That being said the MRS 10 Hunter is one of the most accurate 308’s I’ve ever fired in spite of the trigger.
Got mine new for less than than a grand at GB.
$2200 for an AR10 is not what I would describe as value. Plus there are known issues with Savage/Vista barrels exploding. I would need a thousand off and know where the barrel comes from before I bought this
