I had a Savage 99 in .308 once. Sold it and went back to my .300's which I like much better.
Joe, what is it about the 300 Savage that you prefer it over the 308?
I found it had a sharper report, sharper recoil, and for my use, didn't kill any deader or farther than my .300. Yes, the .308 is easier to find and less expensive but, I prefer the .300. To each his own, they're all good.
