Re: So i want to make a stock? I had a hawkins muzzle loader kit and I sanded and finished the stock at school. You may want to check out rimfirecentral there is alot of info about building stocks from scratch and there was a guy on the who was building an aluminum stock.

Re: SPS Hogue stock not so bad anymore!!! For sure! I would bond it to the stock and put bedding over it. I will also attach the front sling studs to the aluminum too.

Re: Accurate 2520 in .308win Thanks guys I don't see it mentioned a lot on here and thought I would ask. If it doesn't do well my ptr-91 will eat it up!

Re: Jams I have a p220. Did you just let the slide go easy or did you drop it from the open position? I would do as others have said....field strip it make sure a round goes into the chamber then pick up some factory round ball ammo and go to the range. It needs to be "broken in"!

Re: SPS Hogue stock not so bad anymore!!! I like your idea! I think I may try something like this with my savage factory stock. I started thinking about using a piece of angle aluminum with the v shape pointing down and covering it up with bedding. I know weight isn't a bad thing but I would...

Re: Accurate 2520 in .308win Oh ok I didn't know if you had used it personally or just knew of it. I had originally got the powder to try in my PTR-91(hk 91 clone)but never got around to testing it. I figure I will give it a try in the savage 10fp I picked up last week.

Re: Accurate 2520 in .308win Thanks guys! I was wondering if anyone personally uses this powder and what kind of results they have had?

Re: Savage 10fp This stock keeps catching my eye! might just have to hunt one down.

I have a pound of accurate 2520 and am wondering if anyone has some load data for .308win. I have CCI large rifle and win. large rifle primers. I have a few different .30cal bullets to pick from. I will be using lake city brass too. My rifle is a savage 10fp le with a 20in barrel. The longest...

Re: Savage 10fp Well, I made a quick trip the the range in the rain yesterday. I shimmed the action so the barrel was hitting the stock......quick temperary fix! All I had was some south africian surplus and no bags to rest on, just a bipod. I managed to put all 8 shots in a 3in circle @...

Re: Savage 10fp Thanks tman300wm! I'm new to the whole bolt rifle stuff and haven't herd that yet. It will be a little while before I will be ready to send it over to him. Heck I haven't even shot the rifle yet but judging from the stock rubbing the barrel my results won't be very good...

Re: Little Help Please!! I'm from hammond

Re: Savage 10fp I looked on the website but couldn't find it. What is involved in truing and timing? How much does that typically run? The stockade stocks do look good. Which stock do you have JRose?

Re: Savage 10fp Yes the mag stayed attached to the receiver

Re: Savage 10fp I work in a machine shop and there is alot of stainless steel laying around this place. I have another question: When I took the stock off the mag. spring and follower poped out. I'm assuming this is considered a "blind magazine"?!?
