I bought a Savage Sporter in .25-20 not all that long ago. I am very impressed with its accuracy. I plan to reload for it and have gotten most of the components needed. I plan to use Herc 2400 under a 60 gr softpoint. Has anyone else loaded using Herc 2400 over heavier bullets for the .25-20? I see several people wondering how much their sporters are worth. Most gun shops here will give you next to nothing, yet turn around and sell them for hundreds. I think they all have value, no matter what condition. I have seen them sold for almost $500. After seeing its accuracy, energy delivered, and examining recovered bullets, I wouldn't let mine go for any price. I know they are simple, no frills rifle, yet in my opinion that is what makes them a great collectable/ shooter.
