There is nothing in the marketplace, that I am aware of, that is competitive with the Edge in price. It seems amazing that you can get, in 2010, an under three hundred dollar street price rifle capable of one half MOA groups right out of the box, but that's precisely what the Edge delivered. It is affordable enough that anyone who really wants an accurate rifle just ran out of excuses. In the tested .223 Remington caliber, it can serve as a walking varminter, ranch rifle, or utility rifle that you can have fun with at the range. For a general hunting rifle, there isn't much that you cannot do with the .308 or .30-06 families of cartridges and you can have them for the same price.

In summation, the Savage Edge is a clean design that shoots beyond its diminutive price tag. Too often, rifles targeted as entry-level guns have displayed lousy safeties, rough actions, fussy magazines and lackluster accuracy. The Edge has none of these propensities, comes with metal sling swivel studs and a better than expected recoil pad. For these reasons, I think Savage Arms is going to sell a ton of these rifles. There is nothing out there that directly competes with it, much less a centerfire rifle built in Westfield, Massachusetts, USA.
