I purchased a new Savage 111F in .300 Win Mag in 1991 for $400 IIRC. I didn't do any upgrades until 2003 (RB trigger, Holland's QD MB, and B&C stock). I managed to shoot it well but have to admit, the hardest was the terrible trigger pull, it was at least 6 lbs. The current trigger was set as low ass 1.5 lbs but increased and maintained it at 2.5-3 lbs for hunting.
