  1. BEST HARD RIFLE CASE FOR FLYING

    Don't forget an Apple Air Tag. When I buy or sell a firearm, it has an air tag hidden in the case. If I buy a firearm, I send an air tag with payment and instructions for the air tag. Selling, I send a self addressed envelope with included paper work on the sale. The buyer drops it in the...
  2. Barrels for XP-100

    I use a McGowen barrel in 20 VT on mine. Very accurate.
  3. Does anyone shoot P Dogs from a stand up tripod?

    I use to use a rotating bench that I made myself. It was very stable and was great to shoot off of. I found if I'm going to stay in one place for several hours at a time or all day, the table is okay. However, a couple of years ago, I sold my table and went to the tripod. After a few shots...
  4. Small 20 cal project

    The 20 VT is hard to beat. I use a 10 twist for 32 & 40 gr Vmax. When I first start out for the day, it is with a 17 HMR. Very accurate out to the distance you mentioned. With a suppressor, you can shoot a lot more before they go down. After they're down, I switch over the the 20 VT for...
  5. New place to shoot Pigeons

    Police the area as often as you can. The landowner will appreciate you picking up your kill and not leaving them scattered about. When I hunted pigeons years back, I placed a trash bag in a 5 gallon bucket. All pigeons and some rats went in the bag. When I was done with the hunt, just tie off...
  6. Favored Cleaning Patches for .223s?

    I started cutting my own several years ago. Get flannel from Jo Ann Fabrics along with a disk cutting tool. You can make them any size you want. I usually cut mine 1.125" square. This size works well for 223 & 6 mm. I have the material double over on itself and cut a strip. Then cut that...
  7. KRG Bravo Chassis

    I have the KRG Bravo on my Savage 6BR. Very accurate rifle and the stock works well on shooting sticks. I plan on getting another one soon for my Tikka rifle.

  11. Another day of groundhog hunting.

    Time to add coyote hunting to your repertoire.
  12. How does 6BR feed from repeating bolt action blind magazine?

    I just completed my 6BR on a Savage model 10 action. I placed it in a KRG Bravo stock. On my other rifles, I always single feed while at the range. I plan on doing this with the 6BR as well. When hunting PD's, most of the time I single feed as well. Not really worried about a quick follow up...
  13. Savage Questions

    If you call Savage Arms 413-642-4260 and give them the serial number, they will give you a lot of information. I was given a model 10 a few months ago that only had 10-15 rounds through the barrel. I called Savage and told them what I had and she asked for the serial number. I was really...
  14. 6mm BR load advice for 68gr FB

    If you have a arbor press & dies, take it to the range with you. Load the bullets long where they're touching the lands or slightly into the lands. Then fire 3 to 5 rounds, whatever you would normally use and check the group. Then start seating the bullet in .003 increments and you will be...
  15. Carbon Gone on Front of Handgun Cylinders

    Never Dull is also another good product. There's a big wad of cotton in the can soaked in something. Tear off as little as you need.
  16. Shouldered savage barrel

    A shooter can still have a shoulder barrel and switch them out. After it's shoulder, you won't need headspace gauges since it's already setup. It does cost a little more for a shoulder barrel than a non shoulder. I have a Remington 700 setup for a shoulder 20 VT and a Remage setup in 223...
  17. Savage Questions

    I have a Savage model 10 SA that I just rebuilt the entire rifle from 308 to 6BR. I also have a Tikka and a couple of Remington 700's. Since I got the Savage for free, I choose it to rebuild to the 6 BR. If I wouldn't have gotten the Savage for free, I would have made the Tikka a switch...
  18. Savage Extractor broke, I need a replacement

    Here's another one. It could be the same one in post #7 just being sold by a different company. Bolt Head Kit
  19. Another way to make Savage Bolt lift easier

    At the time you did the bolt work as you described in post #14, did you leave in the bolt lift kit after you worked on the bolt? After you did the work on the bolt, did you try the bolt function without the bolt lift kit? If so, how was the lift after the bolt work, but no bolt lift kit?
  20. PD shooting setups

    I do the same. I use a game cart to carry my gear. I get a whole lot more by walking. My rig is post #13 I see a bipod on your rifle, is that a chair or tripod on the bottom of the back pack.
