I bought one in June. Cabelas had a sale on it for $350, plus $100 rebate from Savage. I also noticed a small scratch on the stock and got an extra 5% off. Total was $250 after tax (pending rebate). Could have gotten another $20 off if I signed up for cabelas card, but decided against it.
I opted for the 223 but they had others available. Can't wait to outfit it with a scope and shoot it.
