I was at a Cabelas today and did not purchase the used Savage 111 flat back receiver 30-06 22" sporter barrel with iron sights for $249
I already have a stevens 30-06 NIB I purchased just to have around in case I want to build something. My deer hunting go-to rifle is a sporterized old FN Mauser in 30-06. Right now I don't do any long range shooting, although I'd certainly like to. However, I don't have the time and certainly don't need another project to add to the 5000 that are currently in progress.
Part of the reason I did not purchase is that I already have the two other ought sixes, but part of the reason is also that I was not sure if this was one of the older oddball savages that one can not find parts/stocks, etc. for. (Yes, I should have written down the serial number, etc...whilst I was there.)
How badly did I mess up and if I need to go back tomorrow or Monday, what should I look for? ???
