yeah i'd love an AICS for a savage but yeah it would probly cost a fortune stocks like that are one of the reason the 700 is even popular at all. most companies specificaly design they're custem actions to be compatable with the 700 stock inlet because they're is a huge after market of stocks that are available for it.
i am considering to future builds a tactical build and a common wealth build both of savage actions why cause i don't wanna use what every one else uses700s and i wanna be differant the savage action is a good action just as good as the remington. another reason it's popular is that the remington 700 got used by the military in viet nam and was used to build the M40A1 if that had been the savage model ten every one would be talking smack about remingtons better marketing plan in a few years the savage action will only become more popular look at gun blast they love savage and it is one of the frew loner rifles they actualy purchase the majority of the time
I hear you
if I had $1000 laying around I'd run and buy 12 F/TR in .308 it's soooooo sweet I held one and was drooling all over it

it also has Match Accutrigger
ps. I'm ordering a lighter spring for my accutrigger from SSS tomorrow
