    Gunsmithing savage safety

    I picked up a used savage model 10 in 7wsm. As the old saying goes, if it’s too good to be true, it probably is. Well I picked this rifle up for $100. Looked clean on the outside, other than a big scratch on the stock. I asked the place where I bought why it was marked down so much, original...

    Hunting & Fishing 6br for deer

    My wife and oldest daughter want to get into hunting. My wife has shot my .243 some and doesn't care for the recoil. My thoughts are getting a 6br.

    Sako TRG-S M995 in 30-378

    I think I found a deal on a used one. Looks clean. Not much if any brass marks on the bolt face. Barrel looks clean and the ports on the muzzel break are clean. Either the previous owner cleaned the crap out of it or it wasn't shot much. The only issue I see is they cut the barrle off at 24in...

    I tried the search and didn't find much. Sorry not the best when it comes to that stuff.

So if anyone...
