I put some money down to hold the rifle for thirty days, then went to the gun show today and sold some "Ho-Hum" stuff, so I'll go by and pick it up tomorrrow. Also bought a Savage Model 5 target rifle with a Lyman tangient sight at the show for $115, so I'm feeling kind of lucky. Here's some pics of the Savage Model 5:





Shot a few rounds through it in my back yard when I got home, some .22 long rifles and CB shorts, works good and looks to have promising accuracy. I'll take it to the range tomorrow and give it a thorough range test, along with the Savage Model 29.

My back yard range consists of shooting into a box packed tightly with paper, and we have a large field behind the house in case I miss my back stop. I shoot from inside the garage using mostly CB shorts so as not to annoy the neighbors...

Now, if my luck holds, I'll find that Winchester Model 21!
