This is $439 at my LGS. Savage 11 Hog Hunter.

It comes with irons which will save you $125. It does not need magazines which will save you $30-$40 each. You know you'll buy at least 1 spare if you buy the Ruger.

Load it with 200 gr Partitions and it is a better grizz gun than many would think. Of course it is also availabe in 338 win mag if you're serious about big bear.
