Hi: I'm new here and, with the exception of the MLII, new with Savage firearms. I'm considering purchase of a 110 anniverary model in 300 Savage. Anything special about this rifle other the cosmetic stuff and better grade of wood? Is the bottom metal steel or pot metal? Local dealer has one hanging about 10' off the floor and refuses to let anyone handle it. He values it very highly, about $1400. Needless to say, I will be shopping elsewhere. Any and all input will be appreciated. Stoney
