I bought a 30-06 savage 110 package for about $430 a few years ago. It included the scope, mounts and sling. It is a real accurate gun. It has a wood stock and good action. If I had more money, I think I'd buy a different scope. One thing I like is that it shoots real well, but since it didn't cost a fortune, I don't feel like I need to worry about it. Today and Sat. I sat through two snow storms with it, orIwalk through all types of brush etc.and I don't worry about it. I held one of those $900 rifles at the store recently. I'll admit, it felt more balanced than my savage, but for something that I'm only shooting at game a few times a year, I don't think I could justify that much money.
