So thinking why cant we use a 64oz alum water bottle to haul spare gas just on the incase we run out... My only issue is I don't like saddle bags and have no clue where to mount the bottle...
Something like this maybe. Made for fuel:

They are a bit smaller though. 20 oz. I've carried them for years in backpacks without ever having a leak.
Look at TC-Brothers or Low Brow Customs. I think they sell the bottles and holsters too.
A 64 oz bottle might be a challenge to mount on a Savage unless you've got a rack to lash it to, or a tank or tail bag that's big enough.
