I just picked up this nice old bolt gun, a Savage built 30-30 based on their 340 model. It's marked Foremost Model 6400 which I understand means it was sold way back by J.C. Penny.
Please excuse the lousy cell-phone photo. Just wondering if anyone else has such a rifle and what your experience with it has been. I haven't had a chance to fire it yet and may not for some time.
I find as I get older I like the old stuff more and more as opposed to the latest thing. I saw a Remington pump rifle in .30 Remington in the shop the other day, that one intrigued me also. I had to look it up to find out that the .30 Remington is basically a rimless 30-30! That was something new for me to learn.
Anyway, let me hear if you like your Savage 340 and if there is anything I need to know about these guns.
