Guys, I have a problem ... Brand spanking new, unfired Savage 10FCP-5R heavy barrel 24" fluted, HS-Precision stock . I noticed that the action screws were loose so I tightened them to 35 lbs each . Then , I went to try the safety and it was blocked ... I then took the action off and everything...

Ok... I have this target scope with a very limited 40 Moa total travel . It is mounted on a 20 Moa base . While trying to boresight it with the laser at home at 50 yds to make paper before leaving for the range ,I encountered that the 20 Moa base will allow the scope to sight down to 50 yds...

I will be doing exclusively target shooting at 100 , 200 and 300 yards/meters on my Savage 10FCP 5R , at least for a forseable future . How good is the 30mm Mueller 8-32x44 Target scope ? Seems like I can get away with it and save a ton of money ... It has a target reticle with thin wires and a...

Well... I had no problems at all. All the bad rap about these bases is in my opinion or unfounded or it has been solved by EGW. I ordered the 20 Moa model #41002 for my Savage short action round back 10FCP . I most say that the finish of the base itself is impecable , very well machined and the...

It is a brand new 10FCP .308 , not shot yet . I watched a youtube video yesterday with a guy shooting a Remington .308 and the way he was working the bolt with his thumb freaked me out with envy ... I need my complete hand to lift the bolt , nevermind using my thumb . I heard about a Bolt lift...

It is a brand new rifle and the action of the bolt is not as "fluid" as I would like . Is there anything I can do , like polishing the action , to smooth it out and what parts should I polish in particular ? I can use the green or white polishing paste since I have both . Thanks

Ok, it is like this : I have a Mosin Nagant (I know, I know...) that I have sporterized myself with a nice trigger , bent bolt , modified stock , etc . I installed the aluminum pillars and bedded and free floated the barrel . The Barrel has an impressive rifling and looks great. Anyway... I am...

I am new to precision shooting ... I have the .308 Savage 10FCP and I am waiting on the scope . Since I don`t reload (yet , for now) I need to order factory ammo . Which ammo would I need to zero the rifle and start practicing ? I `ll be doing 100, 200 and 300 yards . I know by reading here that...

Ok , guys ... I ordered the rifle , which is on the way and arriving in 3 days , got the accesories also on the way (Karsten, Seekins rail, bolt handle, two 10rds mags) and now I got to the scope choice . Since I am on a budget and looking for the maximum bang for the buck , I thought of the...

Does it make sense to spend on an aftermarket DBM if the rifle comes with the regular DBM 4rd from factory ? Will it feed as smooth as the factory DBM ? I see that there are a lot of different ones around ... I guess that my question is : is it worth it , since the rifle already has one ? trying...

Whatever happened to it that Savage stopped making it ? and what is the big deal with the 5R 1 in 11.25 twist , compared to the present 1 in 10 ? Is Savage still producing it ? Perhaps someone can share some light on that ... thanks

Well , I have been thinking on getting me a Savage FLCP-K and an SS 10X42 SWFA scope but I made the mistake of looking up at a black Sako TRG-22 with 26 inches in .308 and now I am all confused ... What should I do , forget all about this magnificent monster and get the Savage and start shooting...
