Default RE: my first rifle

Well,

Thanks for the comments. I went down to the gunshop to pick up the rifle. Turns out this particular model (Model 111 in a package (Scope, base & all--black synthetic stock) does not come w/ the accutrigger) I pulled the gun out of the box and wham..no accutrigger. The gun owner made a mistake. The guy was really nice (he said he would put a nice aftermarket trigger which broke at 3lbs. on it for free) What I decided to do was go with the Savage Model 116 in Stainless w/ Accutrigger for about another $130 (Total will be $580) I've been working hard at an extra job for this so, I'm excited to get it w/ the accutrigger. The guys said Stainless is more forgiving to the elements. I will be doing lots of walking on the public lands, so I think it's a good choice. Anybody shoot/own a Savage Model 116? When I get it, I'll post a pic.
