Does the stock on the SAVAGE model 10 make it a better rifle than the Rem 700sps

I think the Savage 10 has a better stock than the 700sps, and I have them both. With that being said, I think they both suck and would really like to replace the stock on my Savage. I'm not too worried about the sps stock, as it is just my hunting gun. Now as far as the stock in itself making the Savage a better gun, I don't necessarily think so. The stock is easily replaceable and probably one of the easiest upgrades that can be done on either rifle. If your asking the question to help yourself pick between the two, I'd look into more than just the stock.

It wasn't a 10 but a 110 and the poly stock got broke in a tragic 4 wheeler backing up exercise that also cost me a gun boot on the 4 wheeler and a hunting coat.

(warning, do not hang your coat on the gun boot and then attempt to back up to get out of the rain. Your coat will go under your wheel, pulling down on your gun boot and break it and sadly, your Savage 110s stock) My dad laughed his butt off on that one while telling me I didn't have enough sense to come in out of the rain without breaking my gun.

Anyway, it led to this. Been posted before but I did the finish work and I'm kinda proud of it.
