If it's a 10ML-I (the original version), then it's a pretty good deal...but if it's a 10ML-II (pre Accu-Trigger) it's a steal. The 10ML-II adressed some convienience issues, like changing thje bolt and breachplug design to eliminate the 'ignition module,' which is simply a brass part that appears similar to a cartridge that's purpose is to hold the 209 primer. The 10ML-II has the primer slid into a slot directly on the boltface, which means there is nothing to lose. If you lose the ignition module for the 10ML in the field, you're out of luck.

Otherwise, the Savage is a great rifle. I have an Accu-Trigger equipped 10ML-IIBSS with the laminate stock and stainless barrelled action, and I absolutely love it. It's, by far, the best ML I've owned and I've owned several from several major brands (T/C, Knight and Traditions), and would buy another Savage in a heartbeat. I shoot 40.5 grains of Vhita Vouri N110 under a 300 grain Hornady SST/ML sabot at 2250fps, and get 1.5MOA out to 200 yards with it. It's clean, easy to maintain, reliable, and very convienient. It allows me to spend more time thinking about hunting, and a lot less time worrying about the rifle and whether it's going to go boom when I need it too.

Good luck,

Mike
