    New rifle!

    Thank you. Also, this is the savage with the bottom bolt release and removable magazine. It's also center feed. Does anyone know of any after market stocks and bottom metal that will fit this rifle?

    New rifle!

    This one only comes in .308. Good for me to get started with as well as trying my hand at some precision reloading. I bought the two boxes of ammo to shoot and start me on some once fired brass. They had absolutely nothing for brass today so I'm going to have to keep my eyes open

    New rifle!

    Yes, it begins. I have a savage model 11 22-250 that is a tack driver to me. it has a cheep 3x9 on it and it's been great for woodchucks. I shot my m16 out to 500 meters for rifle qual in the Marine Corps and was hooked. I love being able to thread the needle that far. Now I want to push the...

    New rifle!

    So I've been asking a lot of newbie questions lately in preparation for my first long range rifle. I bought a savage 10T cabelas special today. I'm so excited to get to the range, but have to wait for my scope until the end of the week. I got the rifle, a 20 MOA mount and two boxes of rounds for...

    Remington 700 ADL in .308

    Sorry I forgot to mention that it is the Varmint model with the heavy barrel. The main reason I'm looking at this is I found it for 449 with a 50 dollar rebate and the same place has the sps tacical for 629. So that would free up 200 for me to add to my scope purchase for now. I'm probably look...

    Remington 700 ADL in .308

    I'm new here and have posted a few items about what rifle i should get starting out. My budget isn't huge and I've looked at the savage 10t, remington sps, and the ADL. My question is, is the ADL a good beginner rifle? I'd like to spend more on the scope than the rifle because of what people are...

    Beginner rifle

    First off, Semper Fi! Second, I've narrowed it down to the savage and found a remington 700 varmint for 549. It has a camouflage stock on it and available at dicks. My main question is, do I go with the savage and wait a couple weeks until I can get a good 20moa mount and the vortex scope I...

    Beginner rifle

    Yea I've been lusting for a GAP for a long time, but funds won't allow that. I like savages and I've looked into the remington sps tactical, but not sure I want a 20" or shorter barrel. I won't be looking into a suppressor for a while so I don't really need a threaded barrel.

    Beginner rifle

    I've been told in the introduction forum that good glass can be more important sometimes. I've been looking at te vortex viper pst 4x16 MOA reticle. I'm on a pretty right budget so I'm thinking around 7-800 for the scope, 100 for good rings and then around 600 for a rifle. I live in Michigan and...

    Beginner rifle

    Hi, i'm new here and looking to get into long range. The general consensus is a .308 and I was looking at the Savage 10T. Is this a good beginners rifle to start with? THank you

    Hello from Michigan

    Thanks for the replies. I was also looking into the savage 10tr. I figured getting good glass was going to be more important anyways. I would probably try to buy used off of here for that. My budget total would probably be around 1500-2000. And I'd hope to maybe be able to get dies for reloading...

    Hello from Michigan

    We will have to do that for sure. I know exactly where that is. As far as long range goes, I'm originally from Ohio and the farm I hunt with my dad, I could set up over 1000 yards if I wanted. The more I look into things, maybe the .308 is what I need to get. I've looked into the remington 700...

    Hello from Michigan

    Thanks for the info guys. I will probably end up going with the .308 then. I was really leaning towards the .300 WM, but the more I think about it, the more readily available ammo for a .308 is, as well as dies and all the other goodies for reloading. I'm not going to be into long range hunting...
