I picked up a long desired replacement .243 caliber rifle at a pawn shop today. It is a Savage model 11, serial number puts it a 2004 model manufacturing.

It has what I believe is a replacement wood stock with the thumb hole grip, a tripod mounted on the fore of the stock and a Barska 3.5-10X50 scope. It is a nice looking gun to me.

I am wondering what concerns there are with this year model, if any. I have never owned a Savage centerfire rifle, only a rimfire 22 which I do like to shoot.

I would appreciate any input that the group has to offer to me !


Thanks in advance,
Mike
