I recently traded for a really nice DPMS SASS. It has a lot of upgrades and there's really not much I think I need to change.
I do need to load for it. Are loads for bolt rifles safe in a gas gun. or is there something like in my Garand that I need to be aware of?
Are they temperamental about powders, or are Varget and RL-15 still good choices?
It has a 1 in 10" twist rate so i am going to use the .175gr SMKs I have on hand.
Do these rifles chew brass much? If so i really need to stock up.
I'll get pics up soon but it came to me with a PRI tube, a Primary Arms comp, YHM bipod block, Magpul ACT stock, Timney trigger and the upgraded stainless bolt. I put my swiveling Harris 6"-9" bipod on and mounted my Vortex Viper on an LT-104 I had.
My Savage just never really grabbed me, but this does. I think I will really like it. I do need to develop a load for it.
Thanks,
Jim
