I have a 30-06 with a synthetic stock, some would call it a Tuperware stock. It is a good rifle especially considering the price.

Yea that wood looks like a step up, I wonder if cabelas, or because it was for cabelas they may have picked something a tad nicer, vs jsut whatever. Most ive seen seem to just be plain american walnut......it is what it is, I just don't see myself buying a savage anytime soon. I like synthetics nowadays, though I think on an african rifle I'd want some really nice walnut.....

Can't say you've displayed much intelligence so far, so this response isn't too surprising.

Here are some of the guns in Savages line up.

Centerfires































Rimfires














Every one of these are butt ugly and I wouldn't take one if you gave it to me:eek:. Savage is not what it used be 20 years ago, they make some very nice looking rifles that shoot very well at respectable prices. The nice thing is even the cheap ugly ones still shoot good.

This is a twin to my rifle except mine has the hinged floorplate and I like the wood on mine better than what is on this one.

Classic, impervious to weather and shoots clover leaves.

Forget about the "wood"; unless you're buying furniture.

I still like laminated wood over them all!

Got a Rem 700 BDL with SS and syn. I didn't want a safe full of all SS and syn just like I don't want all black socks:D

Everyone admires a rifle with beautiful AAA wood, however I just wouldn’t feel right taking it “OUT” hunting.
