    Fat Bastard or Muscle Brake?

    Had a APA "Little Jimmy" installed on my Savage 110 FCP HS .300wm, bullets in the 168 range equal .223 as far as fell recoil. 208/215 bullets might equal .243 levels but the blast is considerable, hearing protection is a must. Building another .300wm at the moment and will go to the "Little...

    how to "tame" the recoil on a 300 win mag?

    Just had the little jimmy installed on my 110FCP HS, hopefully will be at the range soon. APA recommended it, will be pushing 208 A-maxs and 215 Bergers. I'm to old to take a beating, shooting just a few rounds don't work for me. Slip.

    ATK buys Savage

    I hope that's not why Coburn got out, seen the writing on the wall. Have been in tier 1 auto manufacturing for 36 years in operations management, have seen first hand how these by outs affect company's. I remember when Northrop bought a place where I was at for 15 years, that plant's closed, 315...

    savage model12

    Re: savage model12 I'm a Savage shooter so my pick would be the 12 LRP in 260. All of my Savages do everything I need if I do my part. With your budget get the rifle, high quality class, and ammo. Get behind it and practice,learn it and enjoy. Slip.

    Re: Muzzle break Savage 10BA there's 2 milled slots on the back end of the brake. I forget the wrench size, 3/4 ? and unscrew it. It's how I remove mine, then just snug it good when reinstalling it.
