Currently I use a savage 110 in the 7mm rem mag version, really want to go back to the 308, cheaper to shoot, still has power to hunt the game in washington area, also have military back ground on this rifle, but have been seen alot of other choices like the savage 01 in the 300 win mag, not so cheap to shoot but damn it looks nice, so with the two factors, cheap to shoot, and damn factor, what do you think is good? staying under 1200 bucks?. pros and cons
