This will no doubt add confusion as we know they make an older version that is smokeless and now this is for BP only, well guess what there arevery stupid people who will trysmokeless in this just because it is a Savage This will be a lawsuit waiting to happen. The price should keep people back for some time especially with this economy.I think it is a bad call on Savage's part to go backwards and not allow smokeless in this gun. Great guns butI cannot afford them.
