It's not often that I agree with Blackie !

Yep, still got a Savage youth model 111, .243, bought as a combo, with a Simmons 8-point scope. The family calls it the meat gun !

Even got a slip on recoil pad, to extend the LOP.

Butt ugly as Blackie, but ........

Put at least triple the meat down, that any of our slightly more classy rifles !

As to scopes, leupold manufactured Redfield & Burris is as high as we go, too.

As always, YMMV.
