[QUOTE="Scol, post: 55655, member: 2571"] [b]Re: Gettin\' a new gun[/b] Looking through the Savage catalogue, the 112BVSS is the only model in either 7mm Rem Mag or .300 Win Mag which comes with a 26" barrel (heavy, fluted). All other models in these chamberings are 24". I figure the extra 2" might come in handy for squeezing out a bit more velocity. I've just ordered my first dedicated LR rig. I chose the 112BVSS in 7mm Rem Mag and purchased a used Leupold 3.5-10x50 VariX-III tactical scope. I'll use Burris signature series dual dovetail rings with the offset inserts and a Harris 9"-13" hinged bipod. I've also bought a Leica 1200 scan model rangefinder. By the time I've got the reloading components I might just be able to afford to go hunting! [/QUOTE]
