if you think thats a monstrosity i should put pics of mine up. savage model 10 action
factory stock
and here's the kicker, remington heavy varmit barrel, in a .243
i know, i know, normally wouldn't fit, but when your best friend is a smith and the 2 of you get bored, stuff can get interesting. the barrel was cut to 24 inches, the bore lapped, muzzle crowned and threaded, chamber recut to .243, and threads cut to match the savage action. we also did away with the barrel nut that savages come with.
don't judge, just worked up a new load for it, 100 gr speer btsp, 39 gr h414, win. brass, cci large rifle primers. best 3 shot group at 100 was .108", that's just over 1/10 MOA, out of a frankenstien rifle and hunting loads!
