Don't know how you could resist this one. Not mine and no affiliation with the seller.

I've heard that it's considered bad form to post an active auction.

Hmm, wasn't aware of that. Came across it in a search and thought it was something of a rare find. If'n it's a no-no I can take it down.

I'm not the etiquette police and I don't care about active auctions being posted.

Wow!

Nice rifle I have always liked the full legenth stocks. I am not the etiquette police either so as far as I'm concerned keep posting those items. I have seen other people do the same thing.

I have a friend that's in the market for a rifle this would've been perfect for him. However, he has not saved up enough money yet.

Looks like someone snapped it up.

Bull$h1t.

Many of us here appreciate a heads up on items of interest.

OK, maybe it is only considered bad form on the Savage forum. Not that I care in the least who buys what.

I'm with you.

I posted this a week ago in another thread:

I was in Payson, Arizona this past Monday after leaving the Tonto Basin get-together, and dropped in at Rim Country Guns, 513 S. Beeline Hwy, Payson, AZ 85541 (phone: 928-474-8000).

In the enclosed revolving case where they display their better pre-64 M-70s for sale I spotted a M-70 FWT XTR (pushfeed) in 7x57, in excellent condition. It is identical to the one I own, except a bit nicer.

I honestly didn't ask to see it, for fear that I would buy it. I don't need it and it isn't in the budget right now. Only later did I think to report the find on the 'fire in case one of you fellows is interested. The asking price on the tag was $899, which I believe is negotiable. It is not a consignment. I apologize that now I can't remember if it was scoped or not. I was involved in a conversation at the time and moved on to other things I was interested in.

Also, they had some H-4350 on the shelf, that I haven't seen in a long time. I took their only one-pound jug, but they still have an 8-lb jug on the top shelf priced at $229, if somebody wants it bad enough.

I hope that 7x57 XTR goes to a good home.

Thanks for the tip, Nifty. I don't need that XTR, but I'll be sure to stop in Rim Countty Guns next time I'm through Payson.
