I just wanted to take this opportunity state: THIS IS NOT ME - I AM NOT THE "NEMO" IN QUESTION. I have had this screen name on various forums since the early 1990's, for reference.

My old Pacific powder thrower had the capability of left or right hand lever handle but apparently at some point Hornady bought the rights to the Pacific and eliminated that feature when they brought out the "Lock & Load" series of throwers.

I know that I saw "Savage" and ceased giving a shit. I own 3 Savages now, a 12 LRP - Not threaded muzzle, a Model 11 as a hunting rifle for my daughters - Not threaded muzzle and a Savage 99 not threaded muzzle. I'd say that's 100 % of the ones I own and I wouldn't buy another Savage unless I...

Most Savages aren't threaded at the muzzle. This may be what he needs to be all conquering: https://limbsaver.com/products/sharpshooter-x-ring-barrel-dampener?variant=305984077843

Don't be afraid to trim off the overhang past the end of the forward ring on the action. I have trimmed off a couple for scope clearance in the past, no problems afterwards. Hacksaw and a file / dremel / belt sander / scotchbrite deburring wheel and a little flat black paint will make it all...

We're all built different, if that stock fits you and the optic, you're doing better than a lot of us. I need an adjustable cheek riser or build up the stock to get a consistent eye placement behind the scope. I bought a crossbow with a scope last year, and I'll have to modify the stock to...

Looks good ! What Optic & Mount are you planning on using ?

You and your "Metric Money"

That is such a relative thing... I've been in a pair of shorts for the past 3 weeks and am prepped for the warmer weather. I hate having to wear long pants...

I read that too, and was thinking 44 TPI vs 22 TPI is a pretty significant / visible difference. Use a thread pitch gauge for final verification as to what is actually what before making chips.

@Lowlight is who you're looking for...

A good Scope will find a rifle... Don't be afraid to buy the best optic you can afford, it will find a home. Buy the optic with the reticle that works best for your eye and your brain.

So that the muzzle blast from the brake ports isn't pointed towards the flashlight ?

That piece of fuzz next to the action screw in those photos is gonna have some of our "On the Spectrum" members going berserk...
