Last year black friday I bought a Savage 12FV cabelas special for $200 bucks after rebate and cabelas discount for getting a credit card. Mounted a vortex 4-16 pst out of the cabelas bargain cave for $499. Hellavu rifle. 1/2 moa all day long. Easy to shoot. Killed several deer with it. Sweet shooter. Is it the be all to end all hell to the no. But I find it easy to load for and easy on the shoulder. Quite a joy to shoot.
