buttplate did you check out the threaded Savage?
I did. It is nice. I am hearing good things about them. I already have a Ruger 10/22 take down with threads but was not sure I wanted an auto. I may put the $$$ towards getting my 22 can on the way and make the decision on host down the road. The take down is cool with the case and all but I want to be sure I have as quiet as I can get.
I am still leaning towards the AAC Element 2 but have not made up my mind.
