Thanks cayagad for doing such a fine job of checking it out.
As you know I have 3 Whites and they are my rifles of choice.
I do have a couple other smokers too.
I also own a Savage and have taken several deer with it.
What I usually use the Savage for is the extreme weather we can get here in Wi. during the ML season (DEC.) . If its realnasty then the Savage comes out. Otherwise the Whites.
Again thanks for the homework.
