[QUOTE="baranx4, post: 588227, member: 40172"] I am looking at purchasing a 300 win in one of the three listed brands. I've done searches on this site and am still having difficulty deciding on which one. The gun would probably remain stock and be used for deer, elk, etc on backpack trips. I already inherited from my father in law two custom rifles in a 25-06 and a 338 win. So I'm more interested in a rifle that shoots well out of the box or with little low cost mods. I was trying to keep the costs down with the most I was interested in spending was the cost of the savage long range hunter 11/111. To be honest I am not very familiar with savages and don't own any but have read a fair amount here about them. I can also get my hands on a 74 win 70 in a 300 win that was mildly customized. My father in law had purchased it new and has seen little use over the years. Whats interesting about that one is that it's stamped 300 wsm, but I believe it is just a win mag that my father in law had customized. The gunsmith that did all of his work died in the 90's. Plus I never found any wsm bullets. I guess the easiet was to find out would be to put a win mag bullet in it and see if the bolt closes. Sorry for such a long first post [/QUOTE]
