I have a VZ.24, that years ago I converted over to 7mag.. If I had this hair up my ass back then, it would have gotten a Shilen 8x57 as opposed to a 7mag tube. That thing is a shooter though, so no regrets there.

Ive always been in love with the 8x57 cartridge and I really want to build an inexpensive 8x57 "precision hunting rifle". The Savage seemed like the way to go for the "inexpensive" part. I think I paid $150 for the rifle after the rebate and discount and store credit, so the factory barrel...

It’s in the bin. I’ll be sourcing a 8x57 barrel for it soon.

Definitely wasn’t the screws. Those were out. It’s all the junk that was in the threads. Best I’ve found is that it’s savages finish polishing media.

Think this barrel is salvageable? :ROFLMAO: Luckily the action threads are just fine.

This seems to be the consensus over on SavageShooters.com.. Pretty shitty if you ask me and now I know why this was my first (and most likely last) Savage rifle.. At least for the price I got it at, its basically a disposable rifle anyways.. I think I was out the door for $150 at Cabelas.

That photo was before I got the action off but had loosened the nut by a full rotation. None of that stuff in the threads on the action side, all under the barrel nut. I unscrewed the action and then attempted to unscrew the nut off the breech end.. Lots of friction and it locked up tight...

I bought a Savage Axis a few years back for a project I just got started on. I pulled off the 30-06 barrel today in preparation to have the action trued and install a light Palma 8x57 barrel. When I broke the barrel nut loose, I noticed a bunch of tiny little round objects come out of the...

Thanks! Thats super helpful!

I need help possibly identifying this random detachable bottom metal I acquired years ago through some trades and what not. I do know its for a R700 footprint, the bolt centers line up with some factory bottom metals I have. Im looking to ID this thing because I want to send it off with a...

That’s awesome! I will likely SBR this sten so I can use the short boi military barrel.

Nah. It’s a parts kit and a metal tube at this point. Convert to semi before cutting any portion of the tube and it’s all legal beagle. You know it’s also legal to own full auto trigger components also, right? Just not legal to use them in a non registered MG.

Good luck with the CDI. Hens teeth and all that. Pacific tool and gauge does currently make one however. https://pacifictoolandgauge.com/mauser-performance/11366-ptg-k-98-mauser-la-detachable-magazine-bottom-metal.html

Scored a Sten MKII parts kit and uncut receiver tube with template. Oh, and 11 magazines and some old paperwork that apparently shipped with the kit.

I’ve got a pair of sordins incoming with the 6 pin downlead. I’m looking for an adapter that isn’t $100, but the ones I’m running into are for the u174 not the u94 (https://hobbsflyer.com/collections/cables-and-adapters/products/bose-a20-6-pin-lemo-to-u174-helicopter-plug-adapter). I know the...

I’ve had decent sized mule deer “bang, flop” with a .223 at 300+ yards. To say a 6.5 creed is marginal is just irrational.

I’m wondering what options are out there for a PTT that will wire into my Yaesu FT2D, and connect to my Bluetooth in ear protection buds? I’m thinking of going with the 3M TEP-100s or the Ottos. My real issue is finding a PTT button that will wire into the Yaesu and Bluetooth to my buds...

I'm looking at travelling with the family this August down to the Disneyland area. My father owns a timeshare for Lawaii Beach Resort that he can trade time around for us, but his RCI membership expired and I dont really want to fork over the $400 or so just to check to see that there is no...

Nice Rhino Ironworks safe. I have one as well and love it. It helps that they are built 20 mins from me too.

I decided I wanted a different look for my $100 out the door Walmart special shotgun. Its a Stevens 320, 12gauge that is an exact and direct Chinese clone of the Winchester 1300/SXP. Its not nearly the same quality as the Winchesters but its also not bad for a Chinesium clone though either...
