I recently acquired a Savage model 111 in 300 win mag in a trade and dont know much about the rifle or savage in general as i have always owned 700s. I have not been able to find any specs such as manufacture date, twist, stock, barrel, and other specs. I believe it is an older model as it does not have the accutrigger. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Serial number F507021. Thanks.

Will

"F" prefix with a serial number higher than F498821 = Nov. 1st, 1995 through the end of 2002

mine is F155 and was born in nov 91. if we can find out when the "E' prefix ended we can find out when the "f" prefix started

Start of 2002, not the end.

@Mad Dog..I pulled that from the Firearms dating page. So if it is incorrect, it needs to be changed.
