    Is the Remington 700 Classic in 300 Savage a good choice?

    I finally want to get a really good bolt action for deer, sometimes elk, occasionally for antelope. I don't want a lot of recoil or muzzle blast. I see a lot of Remington Classic 700s out there and I like that particular model; seems like a fine gun. Never shot the 300 Sav. but heard some good...

    ...the feeling kept prompting me, I put my beauty of a Colt Detective for sale on the web so I can get either a pristine Winchester 63 or 61...truth is, I miss not having a 22 repeater, the best thing for shooting fun..money is too tight..now I'll have no handgun for a little while, but there is...

I am finally putting in enough practice to see improvement with...
