Actually the ruger felt pretty good , although I find it kinda weird ,that I'm seeing how many for sale with as long as they have been out , and the dealer had never shot one , where he had bought 2 different Savages ,including the target model up from the one I was looking at ( Series B ) and a Marlin 60 , that he had said he was also quite impressed with . I am not going to be little any of these rifles as I have never shot them . Right now , fit and feel along with what peoples preferences are all I can go by . I haven't seen anyone mention that Canadian edition CZ yet . Is it the color that is turning people away , poorer quality wood , less features than a standard model , which appears to cost more ?
