    Please talk me off the ledge

    Ok, here’s a little back story. So last week I was bored and a somewhat local auction house was having a gun auction. For a laugh I was following it online seeing how overpriced the guns went for, like most auctions. But on occasion there are good deals. Well, I put a bid of $325 for a new(with savage stickers still on it) 110 in .243 complete with dbm. And I won it….lol didn’t even need it but it was a great deal!

    Now fast forward to today. On my lunch break today I stopped by a local gun shop. This shop is always overpriced on new stuff compared to other shops in the area, but it’s local and has stuff I like so I go there from time to time. Well, they had 2 Savages on the used rack that I feel were outstanding deals.

    1) Savage model 116 in 300wm…stainless barreled action, dbm, factory synthetic stock, very clean condition. Price was $349!

    2) Model 112 BVSS in 300wm….stainless barreled action, fluted varmint wt barrel, older flat back action, only a couple of scratches on stock. AND this also had a 5.5-16.5 silver Nikon Monarch scope on it. Price for this package was $449!

    I almost bought both of them. Don’t have a need for a 300wm, but damn!

    Anyone looking for one LMK. I need these gone before I go back in there. I want the bvss and would do a barrel swap on it probably, but I’m weak when I see stuff like this.

    Post how you feel about the prices for each. Am I crazy or did I do right by leaving immediately.

    Btw, they also had Varget for 64.99/lb and cci br4’s for $199/1k….. see, I told you they’re high on most stuff!
