I'm about to purchase a new rifle for 200-600 yards. I have pretty much narrowed it down to either the Remington 700 or Savage 10FP and at this point I'm leaning towards the Savage. My question is, is it worth it to purchase the rifle with factory options like the heavy barrel, accustock and accutrigger now or are these things I would replace or upgrade later. Are they gimmicky or worth the upfront cost?
I don't want to spend the extra money only to find out they aren't really that much of an upgrade and I replace them a year from now anyway. If that's the case I might as well buy a bare bones model and add the nice aftermarket components now.
