Almost ready to pull the triger on my first Savage
Howdy folks. Been hunting whitetails almost 30 years and looking in to my first bolt action. Started with shotguns for years because that's all that was allowed. Then went to a lever action 30-30 which I still use and love today. Anyways, looking for something with a little more reach and not to punishing. Read quite a bit about Savage and seems to be a good way to go. Been looking at a 11 fcns in 7mm-08. Have a Leupold VX1 3-9 with Burris signature zee {med.} rings sitting on a shelf collecting dust. Seems like a good deer rifle setup. Only thing I'm not sure of is the base. And a good place to by a spare mag. Any advice you folks could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
