Went to a local gun show yesterday and was looking for either a 22 hornet or a 222 Remington, well i found both but nothing in my price range, if you didn't have 1000.00 you didn't buy. Well we where on our way out when a A5 Browning caught my eye, then I seen her a Model 81 with a side mount scope, in .300 Savage. well 495.00 later i brought her home. here are a couple pics of her. Serial number 27125

Keltg,
Your new .300 Savage 81 has some great wood figuring in the stock. I think you got a great 81 for what you paid - very nice!

Thank you Adam, the recoil pad not being original was a bit of a let down but over all she's in good shape. Been thinking of stripping the finish and redoing the stock and fore stock but i am going to hols off till i get my model 8 completed.Adam Lee wrote:Keltg,
