    Firing pin rant

    So just a quick rant here. It is no secret that I bush a lot of Savage Bolts. And as such I work on and see hundreds of these. Now typically 97% of the firing pins that I encounter in Savages are crooked. That means they rub and cause a lot of issues etc etc yada yada. But will you look at this...

    Amazing display of F -CLass FTR shooting!

    I wanted to give a shout-out to a fellow club member on an amazing round of shooting! We had registered 300 Yard F Class Match Sunday at Bayou Rifles in Houston, Texas. Fredrik Sjodin put together an absolute amazing round of shooting! We had a typical Bayou morning of building conditions...
  3. new savage 110 storm scope mount

    I'm looking for a scope mount for a savage 110 storm in 243. Being a 110 i purchased a long action DNZ mount for it as it is just a starter rifle. However despite calling DNZ to get a part number i ended up with the wrong mount and I'm not sure what to do now as they obviously aren't reliable...
  4. Rabbit Hunting In West Texas

    After seeing some of y'all's threads about hunts I thought I should post about mine from a couple of weeks ago. Took a couple of friends to a farm north of Kermit, just a couple of miles south of NM, to try and thin the jackrabbits that are eating cotton plants. It was way too windy at times...
  5. Savage Shooters/Smiths....Do you free float the barrel nut?

    Hey all you Savage owners and Gun Smiths.....when you bed a Savage action do you bed the barrel nut as well or is it free floated? I just assembled a BigHorn TL3 action (Remington pattern action that accepts Savage barrels) into a J Allen Stock. I would like to be able to swap barrels without...

    Savage 338LM Action Wrench?

    i just bought a Savage 110 BA Stealth model in 338 LM, and I will probably want to replace the factory brake with an APA Fat Bastard. I need help on how to hold backup on the barrel. I have Geissele action rods that lock into the bolt lug recesses for my AR15s and AR 10s, and I got an action...
  8. Savage 116 Aftermarket Stocks

    Just bought a Savage trophy hunter Xp 16/116, 300 WM. Looking to eventually replace the factory stock (which feels really cheap and flimsy) with a composite stock (preferably). Lightweight but strong is the goal here. Also if anyone knows where I could track down an aftermarket bottom metal to...
  9. Aftermarket Stock options - Savage 16FSS Weather Warrior

    I'm looking for any options to replace the factory stock on my original model Savage model 16FSS Weather Warrior .270 WSM which is a blind internal magazine. It is short action and the action screw spacing is 4.27 inches. I contacted stockysstocks.com and they only had one Stock that they said...
  10. Would this be "stress free bedding"?

    I'm putting together a long range hunting rifle and need to bed a fiberglass stock with a poor fitting aluminum bed block. It's a Savage 110 and a B&C medalist stock. After removing some of the bedding block my plan was to wrap part of the barrel in tape and tape under the tang for free floating...
  11. Weight reduction for a barrel nut setup?

    Any of you out there have an idea on how to calculate approximately how much difference in weight there would be for a barrel with a barrel nut (Savage) with a large shank or a small shank vs. a more conventional shouldered tenon setup? Any one actually measured it to see if the calculated...

  13. Savage Fireball Bolt Head

    Everyone is aware of the ejection issues when converting a 223 or 204 action to either a 221 Fireball or 20 VarTarg. Remington solved this problem by indexing the extractor and ejector so the empty case didn't ride the bolt raceway on the way out. Does anyone know of a supplier that sells a...
