Hey Guys, I want to buy my 12 y/o son a Savage bolt action rifle in 223 Rem. My selection of Savage dealers is VERY limited around here. I'm travelling to Oklahoma City Fri, 4/27-Sun, 4/29 to run in the OC half-marathon. I'll travel US 70 west from AR, then north on the Indian Nation Tollway, then west on I40 to OC. Can you recommend a dealer(s) (or gun show) along the way who might be willing to make me a good deal? This would really make a good birthday present (July) for my son! Thanks for the help! Gary T.
Good luck and good hunting.

Okie2, Thanks for the input. I encountered a LOT of difficulty finding a low priced Savage in 223. After calling dealers from Dallas, OKC, Monroe, LA, Alexandria, LA, South AR, and all between, I ended up w/ a Stevens Model 200 from a pawn shop in New Boston, TX (Paul's). They had it in stock for only $285, best price I had found. I hope to finally get around to shooting it this weekend. Gary T.
Good luck and good hunting.
