You know how much your bow should be worth and how much you want to trade for a rifle.
You must have been intersted in this Savage to make the post.

I would say don't deny yourself the opportunity to see if this rifle is what you're looking for.
The only way to decide is to shoot it. If that's not possible, I would move on.

I would never buy or trade for any rifle without taking it to the range.
Good luck!
