check wall thickness with rcbs case master gauge.... and double check how much ur bumping back the shoulder when u FL size, should only be -.0015" thats all that is needed
don't think that matters because ur going to have to remove the optic anyways to the change a barrel regardless of action type (with the exception of AI and the like)... Sounds like the xlr chassis just adds another step to the whole process
i have a savage and to switch the barrel out takes maybe a half an hour but once its installed u don't want to have to remount scope, rezero, etc. basically once its set you shoot it until ur ready for a new barrel swap. But thats just me.

savage is getting better on aftermarket components the aics stocks are coming soon and and honestly i like to be able to change my own barrels without having to pay a gunsmith. i also have a remington and like it a lot as well, lots options like u said for aftermarket add ons / drop ins and the...
I've been really happy with my 110 fcp hs rifle and is gtg right out of the box... just read the SHC 2014 lessons learned thread they shoot as good as custom rifles
forster coax press is state of the art... dies slide in and out for quick change, universal shell holder, mounts easy with C clamps, and stays clean with the depriming catch.
8 is pretty good if u ask me I haven't been getting half of that with hornady brass it seems pretty thin... just bought some nosler because it was available and about to start up with that using a lower node probably to conserve the case life. Are u using the innovative tech collet die? ive...
