I'm looking around the South East (I'm in East Tn) for an old Savage 840 or 340 in .223. Yeah, I know there's alot better options but I have an 840 in 30-30 and I just love that little rifle.

Thanks...
 
I've got saved searches for those and the and the Stevens 322/325 in .30-30 on Gunbroker. Haven't actually bought one but I look at them often.

FIL claims he had a Remington "700" in .30-30 he regrets selling. My guess is it was a 788, I wasn't aware of bolt action .30-30s before him telling me about them a few years ago, and found the Savage/Stevens while looking for what gun he remembered owning.

The USOG fella on YouTube has a pretty eclectic collection, he's said positive things about the 340/840 in the past too.

Revelation actually made one too. I've had the 30-30 for quite a long time and really like it.

I get questioned about it all the time when I take it to a range.

I've found a few on armslist.com but they've always been along ways away.
