I agree, your Model 1920 Savage looks like a great rifle. What caliber did you say it was? Have you hunted with it? The best rifle and most accurate I ever owned was a Win. Model 70, made in 1953 in .243. Took 2 shots at game between the 1990's and last year with that rifle. Result: 2 buck Pronghorns, one at 300 yd. thru the heart and last year a measured 340 yds. thru the lungs.

Stumbled upon a pic of Roy Chapman Andrews, but unfortunately the date and source are not noted.
I tried to enhance the image but his hand is in front of the action
