I tried to like it, guess I just don't. No good reason either, but would like a rifle in 300 savage someday if that makes any sense. ??
JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

I'm not sure which one it was but my brother had a 99 once in 300 savage. I still think he (with my expert help) got ripped at a gunshow on that one, some fella traded him a heavy barrel Ruger 25 06 quick for it. It was a takedown model with the schnabnel? forend. Did I spell that right?

I have a savage 10 and a savage 99 in 308 and they kick harder than my 35 whelen.
I just got my savage 99 in 300 sav back from my brother and can't wait to get the loads worked up.

One of the best, most efficient and accurate cartridges ever. Maybe even #1.
A bloke with a .308 Winchester who knows how to shoot it is well-equipped for just about anything.
What could be a sadder way to end a life than to die having never hunted with great dogs, good friends and your family?

I am still an old fashoined velocity nut. Don't use dotz or turrets, just want speed so no, I am not a fan. Love stuff that runs well over 3000fps and closer to 4000 is better. I know that moderate velocity stuff with an experienced operator using such tech works but I just am stuck in my ways. Gimme a 300WBY or similar.
LOVE God, LOVE your family, LOVE your country, LIKE guns and sports.
