I would like a savage 99 in 250 Savage if I had the need. I like the idea of an mild rifle cartridge in something larger than 243 diameter.
Despite this appreciation for the 250 Savage I wonder how much advantage it has over my 6.8SPC? It too is pretty mild mannered and it can throw 100gr bullets at decent velocity. I have taken one elk with the 6.8 with one shot but that really doesn't tell me a whole lot. I suppose the big deal for me is that the 6.8 ammo is much less expensive but it does throw that brass into the yonder. Still I would like to try a nice light 250 sporter and I'm jealous of those who can afford to use them.
