I have had a savage 338 win mag since 1992, have killed numerous animals with it. Never had a problem except one time, some idiot (myself) decided to take the bolt apart to clean it. Was at the gun shop the next day getting it put back together. he charged me 20.00 and lunch just for being stupid.Joe

I was sitting at my desk looking at a diagram for 15 minutes before I got up the nerve to dissasemble the bolt on my first Savage. Now I do it all the time. I've never had to bring a "bag gun" to a shop, but I've come pretty close a few times.Andrew
The Vanguard and the Howa, are basically identical rifles. Made in the same factory in Japan.
I wanna get a .338 for elk, deer, bear. i am likeing the bolt actions. i want a light weight one. i can put a sissy pad on it if the recoil gets to be a pain. i was wondering what brands you guys would reccomend. i am stuck on the .338 caliber thoughthanks
