Any of you guys shooting either/both of these Savages? Considering buying one or the other of these in .260 Remington.
Model 10/110 Predator Hunter 24" midweight barrel #19130 8.5 lbs.
Model 16/116 Weather Warrior 22" sporter weight barrel #19146 6.9 lbs.
I've long had an interest in this cartridge and am definitely looking forward to loading for it. Rifle would spend considerable time on the bench, but will also see use for deer, so I'm not looking for a dedicated and heavier bench rifle. Thinking the Predator Hunter would be a decently accurate tradeoff without the downside of terribly excessive weight for bean field hunting. But that lighter weight Weather Warrior shouldn't lose much in the way of velocity, and may be every bit as accurate?
And no, I've never shot a Tikka T3....worth considering also?
Thanks!
