      Savage 99C action question

      I have a Savage model 99C that will cycle with the magazine out but does not cycle when the magazine is inserted. I have checked the feed lips and they do not seem bent or out of whack. I have tried cycling it with action dummies and it does not help either. With the magazine inserted the action...

      esrice, that is a great thread. And I can attest to the tame recoil, i was floored when it was less than my M1A. Thanks to all.

      Thanks for all the info, it is helping with my decision. If anyone else has more I would love to hear it too.

      Optics opinions.

      Why are the Leupold scopes so far down on the list? I do mostly target shooting but some coyote hunting (not usually with the 300 WM though) I would like to be able to swap between my Savage and my Ruger M77 target (yes I know I will not have the same zero on both...) I plan to dial for my range...

      Optics opinions.

      I planned on a set of ARMS quick detach rings if I go with the 30mm tubes but I am not sure if I go with the Zeiss and 1" tube. Has anyone tried the badger 30mm to 1" adapter spacers?

      Optics opinions.

      I am currently looking for a new scope for my Savage 110BA (300 WM). I am looking at several scopes right now and I am looking for any feedback as to what to look out for or be aware of with the scopes I have picked out as possible front runners. Here is my short list. ---Zeiss 4.5-14X50...

      new ar trigger

      I have a Jewell and LOVE it. It is a two stage adjustable and wasn't too pricey. I'm thinking $125 ish. Midway is selling it now for over $200 though.

      Primer ? for the 300 Win Mag.

      I called Hodgdon and they said that basically it was a misprint on the powder canister due to some sort of a mix-up on the Winchester primers that were used in the load development. They recommended to use a magnum primer for H1000 since it is so slow burning. Thanks for all the advice and help!

      Primer ? for the 300 Win Mag.

      Ok, I am reloading for the 300 Win Mag and the reloading manual I am using (Hodgdon online) says to use a magnum primer, but the powder I am using states to use a standard large rifle primer (I am using Hodgdon H1000). any experience or suggestions would be great.

      .308 or 300 win. mag.?

      That is a good point the 10 FCP HS Precision is quite a bit less expensive. I have kicked it around (and still am). Just one of those crazy gun things...

      .308 or 300 win. mag.?

      Thanks, these are all things I figured but wanted some reassurance. Another + would be the cost of the 308 is cheaper too... Thanks again

      .308 or 300 win. mag.?

      OK, I am looking to purchase a new rifle and I am hung up on my caliber choice. I am looking at the Savage 10 BA in .308 or the 110 BA in 300 win. mag. (no I am not interested in paying $6+ per shot for the 338 Lapua, though it screams bad ass). I live in southern Indiana and only have access to...

      M1A scope sighting in issues.

      Thanks, it's a weaver scope in weaver rings. All mounting hardware was tight and as far as I can tell nothing was rubbing. The scope worked fine on my M700 in .308 so I would doubt it was the scope. I will check these options out and get back. Thanks

      M1A scope sighting in issues.

      OK, I have purchased an M1A MN and have also purchased a Springfield Armory gen 3 scope base, I have attached a weaver scope and i am getting great groups out of it. However, my groups seem to be wandering, they may start out dead on and then move to 2" low and to the right, then shoot to 2-3"...

      10/22 barrel swap question

      I did this same swap to mine about three months ago and it is absolutely awesome... I used a Green Mountain barrels and a Hogue stock and the thing shoots amazing. You will enjoy it.

      INTENTIONALLY reloading for malfunctions

      I would not recommend this either it sounds and smells like a bad idea to me. I typically will load several rounds per batch of training ammo with only a bullet (NO powder OR primer) it gets the same effect but quite a bit less possibility for a terrible ending (for both gun and shooter).
