Hello everyone, I just bought my first Savage rifle! My experience with firearms started when I was 5 years old. My father would take me hunting! He tought me safety as well as technique. Looking back, those are the favorite memories of my childhood.
I have a modest collection of firearms consisting of pistols, AR's and hunting rifles. I have never considered myself to be an expert marksman, however I do think I'm better than average. My collection, however, does not have a rifle that will truly let me know how accurate I am.
Well, four weeks ago I had total knee replacement surgery. Therefore, I've had a lot of spare time laying on the couch with my leg elevated and freezing cold from ice! During this time I became obsessed with building the most accurat rifle I can afford. Much web surfing led me to this forum as well as others. It became apparent that starting with a Savage action was my best choice.
So, at 46 years old, I just purchased my first Savage 110. I have a barrel on order from Shilen, and a stock on order from McMillan. Hopefully, it'll all come together in a few months. Wish me luck!
