I'm looking at one of these at an LGS. Pretty clean overall, bore is in good shape and it has the original magazine. The owner is asking $690 and doesn't want to come down any off the price (yet).
I used to own a Marlin lever action in 32-20 and liked it quite a lot for hunting small game. It was accurate with jacketed pills but it split every case when fired. I sold it to a friend who didn't reload but I've always regretted losing access to the caliber. I can reload for it, and I have a supply of both brass and loaded shells.
That being said, this one looks really interesting but I know nothing about this model Savage and am curious whether this price is reasonable.
Thanks in advance...HW
