I'm thinking of getting one these savage 16 light hunter what's your thoughts of it I be running factory ammunition thanks
Ive got a model 11 lightweight hunter and love it, the stainless model would be better for nz conditions i reckon
Same as above model 11 stainless 308 cut to 16" love it great trigger also very accurate you would not regret getting one,I hand load but there is lots of good factory ammo out thereQuote:

Ive got a wood blue one in 223. Love it. Doesn't seem to rust, but I look after it with an oily rag.
So is the 11 the same rifle but in blue with wooden stock?
With Savage model numbers, 11 means blued short action and 16 means stainless short action (111 & 116 for blued & stainless long action).Quote:
