Default RE: Savage guns

I bought my Savage, in 300 Win Mag, from a pawn shop in Englewood, CO for about $200. I was a little skeptical but it has amazed me how accurate it is at long distances. For me, at 200 yds it consistently creates groups of 2-3 in. The best measure is that it keeps my freezer full.

I do have a slight problem with the factory installed Simmons 3-9X40 scope. It seems to get knocked off target after I travel with it. It has me looking at putting on a scope that will cost more than the gun itself!

Keep this very basic principle in mind, average equipment in skilled hands will always beat great equipment in average hands.
