Default RE: SAVAGE? HAS SOME BIG BARGAIN DEAL FOR DEER RIFLES? ANY GOOD?

I have a Savage 30-06, synthetic stock with the Simmons scope and love the gun. I have had it for 3 years now and I have killed several deer with it. I only missed 1 deer with it, a 6 pointer. He was facing directly at me and I was too nervous with that many points on it to shoot straight. Before that I had only shot spikes. I usually shot the 165 grain bullets, either Winchester or Remmington.
At the range I soot 100 yards with nice groups.

I' m used to the scope and if no one would have mentioned that it is a weak link, I would not have noticed it. I also added the Bonnie sling and that works geat too.
