    Default C.I.L. 950c????

    I am curious as to if anyone has any experience with these rifles? I'm looking at a 308win. Rifle seems nice enough and shoulders well. Cold get it for a decent price but I know nothing about them.

    Google searching lets me say that the CIL 950 was a re-branded Savage 110-C. Just a good, well-made bolt rifle with a removable magazine. Also known to be accurate rifles, as are newer variants.

    CIL also rebranded rifles from Anschutz, Winchester, the list goes on.

    Edit: I looked at some pictures of 950C's: DEFINITELY Savage 110C's. Great rifle if it's at a good price. The only complaint I've ever heard about the 100 is that they aren't always beautiful, lol!

    A little trivia on the 110.....intro'd in 1958 and it was North America's FIRST left-handed bolt rifle. Sold so well that Remington and Winchester had to follow suit. I didn't look it upon Google but I THOUGHT all 110's were long actions, perhaps not.
    I think new mags are still available. Actually, letter C in the designation 110-C stands for CLIP. Savage is the only company that calls their box magazine a clip. Same for their 99C.
    I've always kind of wanted one; the 110C in .30-06 still appeals to me.
    Post a range report if you buy it!

    A friend of mine has killed countless central Ontario hound-driven deer with his left-handed Savage 110 .308 (hinged floor plate model) topped with a 1.5X variable scope, all bought new in the early 1970s. A great gun in the hands of a great hunter.
