If you really like the .250 Savage (that is your opinion) you might start looking for a Savage Model 99 take down in that caliber which is a fun, unique rifle in a relative obsolete caliber.

I had a guy come in just the other day and ask for .250 Savage rounds, I just about slapped him.

I imagined you had the same look on your face as your avatar!

Savage triggers are rough unless adjusted, or accutriggers. Best way is just an aftermarket trigger.

Isn't that what they call people from North Carolina?

I thought shitheel's were from Oregon?

If that's a vague Clyde reference 2 points for you.

I would consider it a small caliber if it shoots bullets under 90 grains.

Anything capable of taking down elk is not small caliber, and you know as well as I do that a .257 is more than capable of that. I'd draw the line at 6mm, and even that is pushing it. I'd say 75 grains and under is a better range.

To to a guy who's main weapon is a .300 Wby, a .223 seems like a cap gun, and once you've reloaded for a .14 Walker Hornet, a .223 seems like an elephant gun.
