I'm looking to purchase the Savage 10 Predator Hunter with the semi heavy fluted barrel and looking for some real world reviews.
What are the pros and cons of this rifle for deer hunting purposes compared to other similar Savage rifles?
Does this rifle have the metal bottom, trigger guard? I have one other Savage rifle that I had to purchase the metal bottom cause the plastic is junk and I'm comparing prices of this rifle vs other rifles.

Thanks
