    Buying a used barrel??

    Ok I wasn't thinking a different brand of action fitting another action with same thread specs. I didn't ever think that would work.

After some "accurizing " what kind of accuracy could I realistically expect out of a savage. What would the basic accurizing consist of on a...

    1800-2000, I feel obligated to do a 338 since I got a 338 Can, I also like the idea of energy on target. I realize 300 Norma would get me where I want
