Thread: Here we go, change coming to my Savage 10ml-11!

    Default Here we go, change coming to my Savage 10ml-11!

    With some help from smokeeter a while back, I have finally bit the bullet and am modifying one of my ML's. The Savage is going to get a new 45 Brux barrel and arrowhead plug.

    I also opted for the full form sizing die so I have no intention of running sabots. John Grech will put this together for me and complete the build.

    The savage currently shoots well but I've had it with sabots and their inconsistencies.

    I expect great things!

    Looking forward to some pics of the build and a range report when you get it back. What's the timeline for completion? Cheers B525

    Parts will import from us at end of July. I'll have it by mid August and have the parts to John at that time. From there it's up to him time wise and he is a busy fellow. Hoping for end of September.

    If all goes well I will post the road map for others to follow. All three vendors have expressed interest in this as a possibility. It allows fellows that aren't smiths to have a great rifle built for them if they choose.

    and great things will happen, you won't regret it. Just might have to hone your shooting skills ( no more blaming the gun)

    Haha

    Yes I expect that. I have a nice 700mls sitting here as another donor. What to do with that one.... Maybe a nice 358 or 375?

    I will probably sell my PRBullet 700 build I had done and fund another build....

    You're messing with savage ML perfection. Foolish foolish. Funny how the heat of smokeless buggers with sabots huh? I think I read that on here a while back

    Yes I owe you an apology for being such an a s s at the time.

    I will say one thing for those staying with sabots. Try the Rem accutips for the UML. They seem to handle heat much better.

    My Savage 10ml-11 performed flawlessly during last season's controlled hunt & sighting in session. I don't shoot it a lot so maybe if I did I would find some issues with it... lol

    I am of the mindset that if it ain't broke don't mess with it...
