    Build it or dump it. Savage 111

    Its tough... There are soo many good looking Remy rigs wearing some wicked stocks. I know the performance of these two rifles are are awesome. As for building a 700 from scratch, I wouldn't mind picking up a short chambered barrel and reaming it to the right size. I guess if I could pick up...

    Build it or dump it. Savage 111

    AR10s are going for a pretty penny right now. ~$2500 That and I already have an AR15. The savage could probably shoot better if I ran some hand loads through it. I get 1-1.5 groups with Remington Core-Lokt 165gn. I thought about picking up the optic and a set of reloading dies and start...

    Build it or dump it. Savage 111

    I'm looking to build a 300-500yd tactical rifle. I currently have a Savage 111FCXP3 in 30.06 (No accutrigger or accustock) I know these Savages can be a real shooter, however the aftermarket for them is kinda small compared to the Remy 700s. Especially when you look into the stock options...

    Quality M1 Garand remanufacturers...?

    I thought long guns had to be sent to and from a FFL. I live in illinois. Not in cook county or in chicago city limits... but this state has some pretty crappy gun laws.

    Yeah... that is pretty much what I have been figuring out. Turns out their nothern store is about 300mi from where I live. Might have to make a trip up there one day with a wad of cash. :)

    I have a Savage 111 30.06 sprg that I picked up a few years ago. Love it. I have been shooting remington/federal with no problems. I recently acquired half a case of M2 ball .30 cal by Twin City Arsenal. I do not know the date of manufacture. Probably 40ish years old. Aside from the...
