I am looking to buy a Savage model12 VLP in .308 Win Calibre. Am I making a mistake?: It seems to be a good gun. Would like to hear from thise who have one!
 
It would help to answer questions like this if you let us know how you want to use the rifle.

Nice varmint rifle, not so great if you want to go sheep hunting.
 
I am looking to hunt Springbok in the Karoo (South Africa), but I would also like to have the ability to do some long range shooting on a shooting range. For hunting I would shoot between 150 meters to a maximum of about 350 meters. For target shooting I would go up to about 900 meters. The reason I am thinking of the Savage is because of the price tag. I can get a really good deal it seems.

The .308 Win calibre is also to my advantage in the sense that I already have al the reloading equipment for it as well as all the components. It simply is a calibre I that both me and my wife can shoot without her being hammered with the recoil.

Hope to hear more from the guys with this firearm in their safes.
