New build that will hopefully make it back out to CO with me for a visit. Or if I ever end up moving back... Hope to have it done sometime in May. 6x47 Shilen ratchet rifled barrel on a savage target action in a McRee stock. The have a monthly f-class shoot at Quantico, hope to make it..

My new Savage 10FCM, in .308. Here my armorer is inspecting it.



Have a Leu 2.5x scout scope on it, along with self-installed a ching sling.

This is the new type 10, with the accustock. Supposedly it adds 4 ounces of weight? Thats the rumor I hear. If it delivers accuracy improvements even a fraction of what Savage claims it does, then I'll call it a fair trade off.

Some of the features I like:

* Accutrigger. Best factory trigger in a rifle under $1k I've ever had the pleasure of shooting.

* Oversized bolt knob. I don't like the smaller one.

* Scout config. I was always pinching my fingers working the bolt in conventional bolt actions, especially when I was in a hurry. No more!

* Detachable mag, with more able to be ordered from Savage (I hear some fitting is required by the end user, unfortunate but no big deal.)

* Peep sights on there by default. I don't fancy the pumpkin-colored bead for the front sight, though, and already have a post on order.

* Light! Savage says this is 6.25lbs unloaded. I think with the accustock its more like 6.5lbs. Total weight with the scope and sling attached should be just a hair over 7lbs. I like hiking a lot and am trying to combine hiking and shooting into a composite hobby. This weekend I'll be taking this one out to Pike National Forest and see if I can't hike a few miles in, shoot and hike out without killing myself. This rifle is one of the key components to that plan, or at least the not killing myself part of it

Finished my latest yesterday just in time for a little P-doggin! 22-250 AI built on a Remington 788. A&B barrel 24"length, 1/14 twist, 1.250 diameter straight blank. MPI bench-rest thumb-hole stock. EGW 20MOA base. Burris XTR low rings. And I went on a limb and tried a Konus 6-25 power scope with 1/8 MOA clicks. Illuminated MD reticule. Don't care for the illumination though. So far I like there scope. And it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Great glass! Timney trigger set to 8oz. Tubbs oversized recoil lug. Over all weight 19-20lbs. Kind of a truck gun as far as p-doggin goes with it. Pull up,set up table,blast! Getting around 3900fps while fire forming the 22-250 rem brass to AI it. Should get a little better on fps after the reloading begins but will take accuracy over velocity any day.

Before I worked on it....


And after....





Very fun project!

Nicely done. I am thinking about trading up my AW50 for the AX50.
