I'm considering a project gun....again. Due to ease of procurement I'll probably go with the #1 action. IMHO the Savage is the original short mag and is a classic deer cartridge. The 308 has no dust on it and is a very accurate candidate. I have bolt rifles in both calibers so would probably sell that to help fund the new one. The 300 savage is in a Remington 700 classic and the 308 is a pre 64 M70.
What would be your choice and why??
