I shot about 1000 40gr Vmax's, 2000 Sierra 39 BK's,and about 500 35gr Bergers out of my two Savages. 97% of them were at paper, and "never" had one keyhole. Although I never shot more than 60 rounds without a good cleaning. I would also like to see what the inside of your barrel looks like...

The shop owner should collar and leash Ted Nugent.Then tie him up outside his front door. That'll keep them Rodents away.


Glenn Now that's what I call a HO

Hawkeye... I agree w/ you, i want to get some of those 35 gr Bergers as i loved the 40 gr's. But i also wanna take a look at the 30 gr's. Have you heard much on them? -Dan Never tried the 30's... I did manage a range trip Tuesday morning with the 35's and LRPV. It was hot :eek:.Cheek weld turned in...

I put the gun back together and looking straight down the barrel the stocks looks to lean one way, but the barrel is still free floating so i am sure it is right were it used to be but now i am just noticing it. I would center the barrel.That would drive me nuts :loco: I'm still unsure what bullet ...

Your gun should shoot the same next time out. Mine did . Center the barrel and you will be good to go.. Don't forget to take the Hex wrench and trigger adjuster with on your trip

Dan Only the front 3 screws get removed.The rear trigger guard screw does not,(It's locked with some kind of glue). Mark the screws with a Sharpie at 12 oclock before removal.The mark will aid in reassemble if not sure how much to torque.Just put the mark on the screw head back in the same position ...

You guys better be careful.Remember the picture of skippy sportin a helmet and M9 Bazooka :eek: I have never seen any kind of vapor trail. I assume it's like the kind a F16 gets on the wing tips. I'll be on the lookout. He says it shoots accurate and will penatrate both sides of a propane tank at 10...

Varmonter He tells me it smokes ALL the way to a 100 yard target. That's why I told him it maybe a VERY dirty barrel causing massive friction. :eek: :eek: . The thing that bothers me the most is his primers are flatter at 27 grains than mine are with 27.7. I think a good 4 day cleaning is in order :...

Just got off the phone with him and he says it's SMOKE. I did see a fired case and the primer was kinda flat.No powder stains at all on outside of the shoulder and neck.

My friend has a Savage FV in .204 with a blue barrel. Today he told me that when he shoots it, the bullet leaves a smoke trail all the way to the target :eek: .I thought it might be a VERY dirty barrel.His load is 27.0 H4895,Sierra 39BK,and CCI BR4. Any help would be appreciated. And No, It's not my...

Good luck Mike.We owe you one!!

Same results here. My VLP Accu-trigger is a lot lighter than the one on my Thumbhole .223 on the lowest setting.Take a look at the Savage shooters forum.I seem to remember guys cutting a piece of coil off the spring to make it lighter.

DoubleA
I'll take the one on the left SWEET LOOKIN RIFLE
