I had a stainless with laminated stock Savage 93 in 17 hmr. I had the barrel threaded 1/2x28 for a suppressor. It shot lights out, not kidding. 10 shots covered with a dime at 100 yards accuracy. I also had a marlin 882ss that i threaded barrel 1/2x28 also. It shot pretty well also once i worked on the trigger a little. Not as accurate as the Savage.
