Hey everybody.
I bought a left hand Savage 10 back around 2008 or so. I think it was called the weather warrior or something.
It came as a .308 with the crappy stock. I pulled the barrel and installed a Shilen 1:8 .260 Rem barrel and also installed an upgraded recoil lug. I found a take off H-S Precision stock that I think came off of the police model and cut the notch for the bolt handle on the left side and then bedded it. Installed the Sharp Shooter Supply adjustable trigger. Scope is a Bushnell Elite 4200 4-16x40.
It seems to shoot great. I have recently moved and have access to a pretty great range and am interested in learning some long range shooting skills.
Is there something that I should consider changing or upgrading? I've never been in love with the stock, but don't know if anything would make it any more accurate or better shooting.
I mainly shoot 2 gun, and spent some time in the Army. No precision rifle training.
Thanks for any suggestions.
