[QUOTE="StrutNut, post: 1175706, member: 88257"] I have the Savage Bear Hunter. I think I paid $740 for it on Gun Broker. It was a donated rifle to the US kids Shooting Alliance or something like that. It was basically new and I love the gun. 300 wm and with the brake on it has very little recoil. I did put a cheek rest on to better align with my scope and I also switched out my bolt handle and like that a lot more. Its very accurate and as you seen in the video above can get out there with the right bullet. I would without a doubt get a .243 or 6.5 cm though over the 300wm for target shooting. Cheaper to shoot and you wont need a brake. I would even consider a .223 which I actually use a lot for practice just because its cheaper and fun to shoot plus ya gotta let that big boy cool down a bit before shooting it again. I try to do mostly cold bore shots on my 300 wm as thats my hunting rifle. [/QUOTE]
