I have a Savage Mod 10 LE in .308 I've been thinking about selling. Cruising the ads on Bud's Guns to see what they sold for, I came across this review. Good for a chuckle!

First off, the gun is the best performing long rifle for the money hands down. The first time at the range I was shooting a 150 grain Winchester power points, after 5 rounds I had the gun within the 10 ring with a half dollar grouping. The thing that you need to know is with the 1 in 10 inch twist you really need to go with 168 or 175 grain boat tail cartridge. The 150 grain is a little light so it wants to fish tail coming out of the barrel making your grouping a little large, but now that I have a heavier bullet the gun has a grouping of a quarter at 100 yards. The other thing that might turn you off is the weight, the gun with scope and bipod tips the scale at about 12 pounds, so if your a hunter its not the best.
All and all, i VERY happy with the product and the price from bud's is the best i found any where. Plus with the HS Precision stock you will get some interesting questions about what the gun really is.
All that and I still don't know what to price it at.......
