The rifle is at a Cabela's. The previous owner never mounted a scope let alone fired it. He needed some cash quick so he sold the rifle to Cabela's. I can get into it for a decent price but, wondered how well they have been shooting. Thanks Thorbird for the quick response.....I have heard about the excessively long throats before.....were those in the early 6BR's? This gun is the relatively new "Benchrest" model introduced in February of this year. Anybody seen groups/scores from Savage 6BR's? I'm thinking about using it in 300/600 yard F-class local events.
