Re: Savage Weather Warrior: opinions, anyone?

Buddy of mine has one in .375H&H for his guiding, back-up rifle. It shoots bughole groups with 270, 285 and 300gr. bullets individually, in the same 2" overall group, of course.
: He really likes the rifle & is becoming his favourite for Moose and big bears.
: Prior to this, his preference was for custom rifles on P-17 and P-14 actions, in 8X68S and .338WM. The all-weather stainless rifle with polimer stock is the best foul weather rifle he's used & seen in cmp as well.
: When I guided back in the late 70's, everyone had difficult with their chrome-moly barrels and walnut stocks in the BC interior wet fall hunts. swollen stocks and rusting barrels were the norm.
: The .375 Savage is a slammer on Moose and bears alike with the 285 Grandslam Speer bullet.
: I personally don't own one - yet, but have converted to stainless barrels and polimer stocks jsut due to the fall rain that sometimes doens't stop. They are very much worthwhile in wet climates.
