Alright, went shopping today and ended up finding a pre accutrigger Savage 110 .30-06 with synthetic stock and a simmons scope on it in near perfect condition for 299.
I put it on layaway, I grew up shooting a Savage Mark 2 or 4 or maybe 7(I forget the numbers on it) bolt action .22 pre accutrigger and from a couple of dry fires, the trigger on the .30-06 feels just about right.
I probably paid a little more than I should have for it, but the layaway thing worked out pretty well being right around Christmas and only needing 10% down.
I could have, in all likelihood, walked out the door with it for about 225 if I would have had cash today.
But not too shabby for a weapon that feels right, total cost with tax and all that jazz was 320 something. Now I've got to pay it off and put a better scope on it, probably going with a Nikon 3-9x40.
And yeah, I know I could have bought a brand spanking new one at Walmart for 299 or whatever, but there's not a walmart around here that sells guns anymore, and at gander mtn the same gun with the accutrigger is just under 400.
