Thanks Jed.....your opinion is one I've come to trust here.
I tend to be more of a shooter rather than collector, so I don't always stay up on current trends. I don't try to get rich when I sell a rifle, but it woud be kind of nice to point out to the little woman that I actually MADE money by buying a new gun.....damn I like the sound of that!
That also means I made a VERY good buy on the pre-mil .243. If I don't sell the rifle locally (one of the offers was from a man with an 8-year-old daughter who needs a first deer rifle).....I will definitely post it here and try to pass on the good to those who appreciate the Savage 99.
