Savage bolt rifles have always been sleepers IMO! Nobody paid much attention to them because they were ugly. That was a mistake on their part, because the Savage 110 is an ugly duckling, the will shoot the pants of some rifles that cost twice as much, right out of the box! The Savage Mod 99 of old, when they still had the rotray magazine, were very well made, and were far more accurate than most lever guns. I had a little 300 savage mod 99 that was a real pleasure to shoot, and did a yoman's job on Mule deer in the pondarosa pines of New Mexico. Wish I hadn't sold it!
IMO, The Savage 111G with accu-trigger, is a better rifle than the Rem 700, or the Browning either one,though it may not be a pretty, and with a little slicking up is a real buy for a rifle to hit the Elk/deer woods with, in a good chambering like the old tried and true 30-06, or 300 Win Mag.
