anybody know where a feller can get that new fancy savage? Looking for a 300WSM.

Looks like a decent rifle would have to see how thatt NEW detachable magazine works on it. I would think its too early to expect those to be produced

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell me I read this correctly..........you mean Bigcountry is going to look into buying a gun that Mossy suggested?????? The world will end very soon people!!!!!! If you buy it, you might actually own a rifle that will shoot with mine!!!!!!

Mossy, Mossy, I have always told you I like you savage. Well, after you got a new stock and had a decent blue job.

oldelkhunter

Bingo and how much did that cost ole Mossy?

bigcountry

Well over 800 dollars for a muzzlebreak, trigger job, new boyd stock, great looking bluing, and lapped his scope rings.

On second thought, I could go ahead and get a Sako if I save my lunch money.

Somehow I thought the original intent of Savage rifles was low cost value...

Oldelk I have went down this road a few times with Savage. I had a 10FP 308. Shot pretty good, but hated the cheapness. So I always did the numbers in my head about getting a good McMillian stock, and any other changes I wanted. And I always came back to the conclusion that I could get something else.

Mossy's gun does shoot quite well, I admit. And he's happy. I guess thats the only thing that matters.

I am in the mood to buy a 300WSM today. Thinking either Browning Stainless synthetic, or as a high end option, a Sako75 hunter.

Most anything you modify is not going to hold its value with maybe a few exceptions. If he is happy that is fine as well.
