[steelfury455]

does Savage make this model with a longer barrel?

[KCDustRemover]

@steelfury455 Yes, it comes with a 24" barrel. This isn't the stock barrel, it's a McGowan.

Not to be offensive but I did notice you have a lot of bipod hop. You might want to look up SHLowlight on here to view his video on "loading the bipod". It has helped my prone shooting a lot. Like I said, no offense intended.

[KCDustRemover]

@proinfidel It's been addressed since then. I found that my lower body was to the side rather than straight behind. I get right behind it and the hop greatly reduced. It's still tough to keep it under control when i'm pushing 208 amax's to 2550 or faster with that short 20". The rifles fairly light (13.5lbs). I'm getting a suppressor here before too long which will really help.

I have a savage 110FP .300 WM. What's diff on your rifle on the internals?

[KCDustRemover]

@glennwih Model 10's are short action's vs. the long action of the 110's. My rifle's been completely worked over and is far from stock now.

[glennwih]

@KCDustRemover I noticed your stock. Is it glass bedded etc? I get 1" groups but as the rifle heats up it goes to 1 1/2". Any Advice?

[KCDustRemover]

@glennwih Yes, it's skim bedded mostly around the recoil lug and a little on the aluminum bedding block to eliminate pressure points.

[glennwih]

@KCDustRemover I saw a cheap .300 mag at Cabelas. It was only 239.00. A project gun I guess but the bolt felt weak. New condition.

Well the video looks nice cant wait to see the rest, I've always wanted to make a long rang .234 rifle to shoot 4 or 5 yards.
