    How much? Savage Model 14? I got mine off trademe on a dollar reserve for $516 brand spanking, I thought that was quite cheap and it's a bloody good little rifle.

    Yep Savage 14 in 7mm08, hence the latte comment. Paid $460, its practically theft for a rifle that nice! Second hand but in great condition, nicer wood than the Mod 14 223 I already have.

    Nice, had to have a stern talking to myself to not buy this. Straight bargain

    Yip, if it shoots the way it should then I expect I'll be putting putting the Ruger 308 up for sale before too long - no point keeping both of them and I prefer the Savage action.

    A few weeks ago I pre ordered a gun from Ken at NZAR15... Anticipating its arrival on Saturday I went home (from Uni) but the uncertainty of it arriving in the mail on Saturday made it a long morning waiting for the postie..
    When the postie turned up I could hardly contain my excitement!!

    As you can see below, I already had all of the other components ready waiting for it. The scope from @300_BLK , Fab Defense grip from @Sasquatch , plastic 30mm to 1" inserts from Aliexpress, ammo from Barnaul NZ and Burris PEPR from NZAR15.

    My brother, girlfriend and I got straight into cleaning and assembling - putting all the parts together felt like playing with lego .
    Unfortunately the magazine isn't here yet so we had to single load every shot.. It had 60 rounds put through it in a day and half and I'm so happy with it! Best purchase I've made in a while.
    Top to bottom: Savage .223, Savage .270, NEA 14.5" 7.62x39 (planning to make it shorter and suppress)

    PS its a loud bastard with the short barrel and muzzle brake! Quite a shock wave if standing to the side of it.
