As a righty who shoots lefty I have wanted a LH rifle for a long time so at 43 I decided I'd waited long enough. I got this used Savage Model 10 Tactical .308 at auction this weekend for $500 and have researched what I could online, but always like the info I get here. Here are my questions, etc. and any help or feedback is welcome:
I can't find any serial # info online and don't know exactly what year or version I have.
It has an internal 4 rd mag, but I can't find a manual for anything but a box mag.
It looks to be missing the third swivel stud (for a bi-pod as I understand it) so should I replace that and if so, how hard is that to do?
What about ammo and scope recommendations to get me started and not break the bank?
I'll be shooting at a range mostly but have "plans" to take a deer and/or boar hunting trip in a couple of years when my sons are older. Is this the right gun?
I could probably keep rattling off questions, but I'll quit for now and see what wisdom comes my way before I ask more.
