I might have a change to buy a Savage bolt action .308 cal Rifle really cheap. What do you guys think about this gun. I have a .243, .270 and 30.06 but I would like to keep adding to my collection. Is this a good buy or should I pass ?

No interest in the .308 ? or is it Not in the Savage ?

Theres nothing wrong with either the Savage or .308. I have a couple of .308's and a couple of diferent Savages. If you like the gun I would buy it.

I absolutely love the 308 Win. and Savage makes a pretty decent rifle, so I say go for it if you like it and the price is right.

Where and how much? I'll take it if you don't want it.

the gun is on a local online auction. I'm going to have to watch close and get it if I can.

the 308 will take anything in NA with the proper bullet. If you want it, BUY it.

I own a couple .308's, one is a Savage. The .308 is an accurate, dependable, versatile hunting cartridge. Being 30 caliber there are numerous choices for bullet weight, and they basically perform like a 30-06 out to about 175 yds. My wife shot an elk with hers using some 170 gr. Nosler flat nose loads I made up. Mine is a bull barrel LE version I mainly use for target shooting, although I have hauled it out to see what it would do to a doe.
