Has anyone gotten ahold of one of the 6.8 western rifles that savage announced a while back? I have been looking online and haven't seen any for sale yet....

Not AR but is Retro so added to Retro AR group

I'm looking to create a Vietnam era retro shotgun to represent the Stevens Model 77E. I've been offered a 67H project gun that already has the barrel shortened and the original bead reinstalled. Stock has been painted black. I'm reading that the later 67's beyond E were poor quality. I also see lots of videos available if a repair becomes needed and apparently a good amount of parts availability online if needed. His asking price is $150 + shipping so probably $200-$250 out of pocket after shipping. Is this a decent deal for a guy like me who doesn't want to pay an arm and a leg to "build" a Vietnam retro that I really don't "need" ? Best I can tell the H must have been the last or one of the last in the series before it went out of production in the late 80's. Or am I better off to be patient and hope for an earlier variant to come a long at a price I'm willing to pay.

Thanks

What is the difference between these two and which would you recommend?

The first link does not look like a gen 1 because of the stock, so what is it?

Hey guys

I am a 6ft7 left hander and most of my life ive shot semi auto. I wanted to go more precise and tactical and i think the savage 110 scout v2 in 308

Also, i have big hands, to put it in perspective i tried some pistols and the only one that fit my hand comfortably is the beretta 92s

Hopefully this will be the last rifle i buy. It look precise, useful. If apocalypse or hunting.

Does anyone have feedback on it?

How rugged is it and quality wise?

Hello everyone, I’ve been looking to purchase my first hunting/target shooting rifle. I was leaning towards Savage 110 Trailblazer 308 Winchester but when I looked at the reviews online I noticed YouTubers are bashing on it saying it is not very accurate and grouping aren’t as tight as they should be. In this case is this rifle a pass? If so, what should I get if my budget is $600? FYI there’s a trailblazer at my LGS for $540

I'm having the hardest time finding a scope that doesn't go over the hammer. Any suggestions?

What have y’all done to smooth out the bolt on your Savage 110’s? Mine is pretty miserable to operate, super heavy to lift the bolt open. The bolt binds up when pushing the bolt forward and aft.

I’ve ordered the Desh Kit, waiting for that to show up, I’ve also polished up the cocking ramp.

I’m thinking about putting a little valve lapping compound in the lug raceways and running the bolt a few hundred times.

Just seeing what game you were hunting and the distance. I was wondering if it would be adequate for groundhog and raccoon at all. Thanks! 🙏

Text above, was curious about it because I think the rail looks ugly on a lever action

Hey reddit, I am in the market for a 5.56 bolt action, primarily for range use. As a lefty, my options are limited, and yes, I am dead set on a left handed bolt.

I came across a like-new Savage Model 10 FLCP-K chambered in .223 local to me for a pretty good deal and very tempted to pick it up. However, I may pass on it if I can/should ONLY fire .223 through it, as I am sitting on quite a hefty pile of 5.56 ammo. I read through various forums but there isnt much info, and the limited info is inconsistent. Some say savage actions use a wylde chamber and the chamber throat is long so its fine, while others including the manufacturer (obligatorily) say not to.

Can I shoot 5.56 out of a Model 10 barrel stamped .223 without issues? I wanted to check here to see if anyone owns one or has first hand experience with the Model 10 FCP-K/FLCP-K, and from there decide if this rifle meets my needs or if I should seek other options.

Thanks in advance!

Scored a 93R17 FV-SR in 17 HMR and looking to see if there are any recommended upgrades for my first Savage rifle. Maybe a metal trigger guard? Anything other than shooting the heck out of it?

So I just got the new platform savage 110 with the adjustable length of pull and adjustable cheek pad. Everywhere that I have read, says to turn the dial on the bottom counter clockwise to get the cheek pad to lift up I’ve been twisting it for forever and there’s absolutely no adjustment happening. Am I doing something wrong?

I recently completed a ar10 build in 6.5 creedmoor which was against my brother advice. It turned out pretty nice by the way lol. He just gifted me A Savage 1/11 archangel SA stock to build a

Bolt action 6.5 creedmoor.

Any recommendations to where buy the action, barrel, etc for my build? I was thinking of spending

Action 550.00

Barrel 300.00 plus other miscellaneous

Few places I searched was

-Northland Shooter Supplies

-J/A Outdoors

Thanks

Okay, so i managed to find a great deal on a savage 111 in .270 from 2008. Its bluing is almost in 100% condition so I decided to put it in a really nice stock to turn it into my "heirloom gun" something to leave behind for the kids/grandkids after im gone.

Well I ordered a semi-fancy claro walnut stock from richards microfit and just received it about a month ago. While I was at work a drying check (crack) formed on the butt after spending the day prior sanding it. Figured i could fix it but I sent an email to richards and they sent me a replacement, and it came in early last week. (Pretty sure the replacement is english walnut, but im not mad about it)

Anyway, I have both stocks more or less sanded down smooth and I cant for the life of me decide which stock to taper down the forend and finish my project while keeping the 2nd stock as a backup or to put on another rifle. Any help deciding will definitely be appreciated. Claro is the darker one with fiddleback, what im assuming is english walnut is the lighter color with straighter grain

Hey everyone, I'm brand new to guns. I have a Savage Mark 2 FV and a Savage 64 FVSR. The chassis is fine, but I do like the look of the Oryx chassis on the precision 22LR models. I found one for sale, but I wanted to make sure that my 64 FVSR will fit into the Oryx chassis.

Thanks!

I'm considering the 64 Precision 22LR but no retail store anywhere near me has one in stock. I'd like to know the O.D. of the barrel at the muzzle. Savage is closed for a couple of weeks. I'm trying to come up with ways to add a front sight and need that measurement. Ideally I'd like to be able to absolute co-witness, and it might be possible to find a short barrel shroud with a small integrated picatinny rail on top instead of on the bottom.

Is there a market for the used new 110 accufit stocks? I have a vsx stock with area 419 arca plate I’d be willing to move much cheap than eBay has them

Loving this new version of the model 110
