Roger, you forgot to finish a post on the Swede, with. " Ya Chur, ya betcha".... or where you put " NOT great, but Okay" you should have put.. " Oh Vell.. OOOFDa" Those are spelled phonetically for ya so you can get the pronounciation right at least... Life Member: The American Vast Right Wing Conspiracy Jan 20, 2009..

Roger, If you don't mind my asking which chamber did Shaw cut it for? American .473 brass (cheaper to feed) or Original swede (.480) dimensions? AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!

The fired cases measure .478" but these really seemed to be a modest load and may not have fully expanded. most of the Euro brass I have measures < .478"  rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!!

Too bad you had to put another barrel on to ruin the accuracy. One of my savages (.300 RUM) shoots .5 MOA and my .270 WSM Savage shoots .23-.25 MOA just as they came from the factory. I hope you realize I'm only kidding, I understand that you probably couldn't get the caliber you want and those Stevens actions are a great value !!! Elite Archery and High Country dealer. | |||

True!  The Stevens barrels are much more laborious to get clean.  rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone.. | |||
