Bought this new a couple or three years ago. I haven't been able to get it to shoot consistently. I took it to a local gunsmith, and he broke it down. I don't remember what he did but it wasn't much. Seems like I remember him saying something about sanding the bedding blocks. Anyway, when he put it back together, he shot two shots that were a half inch apart. I brought it home and got a 3/4" group at 100 yds using Hornaday Whitetail I believe. I then changed scopes and got a decent group with Federal Fusions. I got it out not long ago and shot three shots with the Hornadys and they were all over the place. So, I give up. I don't know if it's the cheap mounts I have on it or what. But, I am willing to make someone a good deal on this gun. If you are a tinkerer, which I am not, I am pretty sure you could get it to shoot accurately like most Savages are. If I remember correctly, I paid $575.00 for the gun from Bud's plus $30.00 FFL fee. I would sell it for $395.00 for just the gun with a multi-slotted scope rail, or I will throw in a brand new Bushnell XLT 3x9x40 scope for $50.00 more. The scope is mounted on the gun now but hasn't been fired since mounting it. I had a Leupold 2x7x33 on it to keep it light but took it off and put it on another gun. I can text or email pics. That price is for a face to face transaction. I live in Franklin county near Russellville.
