Savage rifles?

[MTduckslayer]

Hey guys.
I have a Savage .243 that I use as my deer rifle mostly but I was wondering if anyone has one in any other calibers? I am a HUGE remington fan but this Savage shoots awesome. One of the most consistent rifles Ive ever shot. I posted a thread lookin for the best all around gun in the optics forum before I saw there was a rifle forum. Im specifically lookin for anyones take on the Savage .270, 30-06, or 300 mag.
Thanks

It sounds like your looking more specifically for information on deer caliber rifles. But I had to share, I have no prior experience with Savage but purchased a .223 in November and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! I've never shot so consistent and had so much fun shooting as I have with this rifle. I think a lot of that probably goes out to the .223 caliber, It's so small and fun to shoot! I can't get enough of it!! But i'm sure that Savage is also a contributer to the smoothness of the weapon. One things for sure, I LOVE THAT TRIGGER!! (Accu-Trigger I think it's called?)

Thanks but Im not as much lookin at deer calibers as I am elk, muley, antelope, whitetail, and bear calibers. Thanks though. Never shot a .223.

I have never owned one but have worked up a handload for a couple both were 270 cal used a 130gr ballistic tip and they both were awesome.Good luck.

I've retired this fine rifle.
Model 99 250-3000 Savage. Took my first Mulies and Whitetails with it.

I've had a Savage 110 or variations of it since 1965. All were one holers. I currently have 111's in 270, 30-06, .223. My first Savage was a 99 308 and it wouldnt hit broad side of Gughiocello's barn. The second Sav was a 264 WIn Mag I carried for 25 yrs. It was a one shot one kill rifle. Sadly, I sold it in a weak moment.

Good luck with yours.

The entire lines up of savage rifles are very good, they have taken a large share of the varmint rifles, and they are making a make in the F class shooting world. I have owned many savages over the years. 1st was a 99E 300 savage and still have several of them.
Sounds like you have your mind made up on the brand; now what model? must models are available in the calibers you listed. Do you want wood, laminate, plastic.
If you are undecided on the model, you might look at the CZ 550, they also have a set trigger. Just a finely built rifle

Thanks guys! THis helps a lot. Now, Im pretty set on a savage. I do need to look into the models though. It looks like, for the money, you can get a great deal on an awesome gun.

Savage has long been known for out of the box accuracy and affordable price. They may not get the purdiest rifle award but they can stack em in there.

As inspired by Wayne.
