SavageShooters Forum Shutting Down

[KMW 1954]

I really don’t see the point. They can be discussed just like anything else.

In my view that is not the issue. There is a lot of old information gathered there that will be forever lost. Stuff that just can't be easily found of replicated. With no archive as suggested it will be a shame to all past and future Savage users.

Nowhere was it said or suggested that Savage issues cannot be discussed here, now.

I'm a long time member at Savage shooters and that might be the problem, you can only discuss the same gun for so long. With new shooter turning to ARs and long range shooting Sav isn't at the cutting edge. Nobody is making Savage BA clones for precision shooting. Those shooting savages in any form of competition are an anomaly. Savages just aren't that much interesting.

That said I have six coyote and varmint hunting rifles built on Savage actions, my practice rifle is a Sav 22lr and I used to collect 1899 and 99 lever until I could no longer shoot open sights sold off all that needed to be D&T'd.

I still spent more time here than at SS.

When posts sit at the top of the page for months with no activity it is time to close the doors.

I don't think there is going to be a lot lost closing the doors there, almost anything you want to know about Savages can be answered here or elsewhere.
