Don't believe it, John- why, with a 7mm Mangulum, you can one shot elk at 700yards - see it on WILD TV all the time. Actually I removed that channel from my list - too much long range bullshit for me - with new guys showing up that the range with new 7mmmags and .300 Mags. because "a guy on TV killed an elk at 800yards with one - it's easy with these guns!"
They can't even put 3 consecutive shots on a target within 3" of one another at 100 meters off the bench - but - "that's OK, it's not for shooting at 100 meters anyway - it shoots better at 700!"
Nice Savage! - Had one in .300 Savage (rotary mag and brass cocking indicator pin on the top of the tang) when when I was in basic training. I used to load (at Depot Div) 110gr. Sierras and shoot jackrabbits with it on my cousin's ranch - South of Moosejaw, Sask. on Sunday's.
I'd be shootin' that rifle!
Plus 1 on that Daryl.Here is a Tiger killed in 1920's Written in 1953 .The Rifle: Savage 99
