I've been hunting for about 25 years. I killed my first deer when I was young with my Dad's old savage 222 and I've kinda been a savage fan ever since but I never owned one until 5 or 6 years ago I bought a 93R17, it's a good shooting rifle. I've also got a model 10 308 that is a great shooter and most recently a 12bvss 223 that I've not shot yet(still need to put some glass on it). Hope to add more when I can (would love to have a fox double barrel). Glad to be part of this forum.
