I've been thinking about joining this site for a while, so I decided to do it tonight. I really like the old Savages, and as I prefer the older guns(regardless of make), Savages are usually very accurate. I own a couple of older 99's, with both in 300 Sav., 2 222's, both older Savage bolt-actions, an old Savage bolt-action 30-30, and a more recent Model 11 BTH in 300 WSM. The last one mentioned is the only one with accuracy problems, but I think I've figured that one out. Looking forward to participating in discussions here!
