.308 Win Savage Used Parts Gun

Pretty Happy with this one!!!!

First a shout out to Coldbore-0-, I bought the barreled model 10 Savage action from him on this board. Shot as good or better than he said it would!

Got a used Choate stock off Ebay. Used SWFA fixed 10x scope off a gun I traded for. Loaded up the once fired R & P brass Coldbore-0- included with the barreled action with CCI BR2 primers, 43.5 grains Varget, and 168 AMAXs seated .020 off the lands.

I ran the charge test all the way out to 46.5 with no signs of pressure but nothing else came close to 43.5 except 46.5 but I think I'll shoot the 43.5 a while.

Had 3 rounds left and made 1 hit 6" low dead center @ 1000

Going to put a 20 MOA rail and medium rings on it otherwise its done I'd say.

Oh yeah I don't want to brag about being cheap but if i value the scope @ $200 I have $900 total into the rifle.

I put the 20 moa rail and medium rings on it today. Wish I had a set of lows I think they would have cleared.
