    Cleaning a 17HMR?

    So I've read all over the place and opinions seem fairly divided. "Rarely clean the thing, they shoot better with a fouled bore." Or "Clean it like a centre fire they're copper jacketed." So from people who actually own them - what do you do? Im a fairly new Savage 93R17 TR owner, and am still...

    Savage TR Coating?

    Anyone have any idea what it is that the Savage TR's are coated with? Will the barrel be less susceptible to rusting?

    Anyone know if the Savage TR's are out of stock?

    I have a Savage 93R17 TR on backorder from Cabela's Canada (sadly - the only place I can order one here in Manitoba). They have no clue when its coming, and so far no response from Savage as to what the TR's production status is? Anyone know anything? No boyd's stocks available? Not in stock at...

    Weaver Grand Slam Tactical Mil/mil

    Anyone know the min distance that it can be used at? Or anyone running one on a trainer that could share their experience with it? Is the lack of Parallax adjustment managable?

After 9/11 a law was passed that doesn't allow the export of any gun part or accessory...

    Rimfire Optic for 25 yd to 200 yd?

    I've picked up a Savage MkII TR, and for optics I've been looking at the Weaver Tactical Grand Slam3-10x 40mm, and the SWFA SS10X42M. I like the mil/mil of the weaver, but I also like the 30mm tube on the SS as well as the focus ring. I also like that the SS easily accepts a matching sun...

    New - what to start with?

    So I'm new to the sport, and so far I've just used a friends old school 22 with an unknown scope on it. But I've really enjoyed it. Planning on purchasing my own set-up and I've settled on the gun, but not sure what to do as far as optic/rings/bases go. I want something I can grow into, but not...
