I am looking at purchasing a new 300 win mag. I am going to use it for hunting in Montana (mainly elk, deer and bear). I also want to get better at working my way up in long range shooting with it. To start out I want to get myself comfortable at ranges up to 700 yards (but more yardage later if I can). I have decide this is the caliber I want to try and I am really intrested in trying the Savage 111 long range hunter rifle. I have be able to track it down locally(which I will say has been a chore in itself lol). It runs NIB for 829.00. I am wondering if it is worth it for the money or is priced too high for what you get in a rifle. Does anyone thing there is a better rifle out for the same or less money? I do not want to go through the hassle of having a gun smith completely rebuilding a gun for same accuracy right away. If down the road I want to have a gun smith work on the savage 111, will they be able to? Or is it a unique rifle that is hard to customize? Any advice would really help! thank you
