Simple question. What is the heaviest bullet that you've been able to get a FACTORY savage 1/9" .223 barrel to stabilize adequately without having the barrel puke the bullets at the target? ---------------------------------------- If you waste your time a talkin' to the people who don't listen To the things that you are sayin' who do you thinks gonna hear And if you should die explainin' how the thing they complain about Or the things they could be changing who do you thinks gonna care Waylon Jennings | ||

 Ditto , but not the 80gr. LDVs  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.. | |||

I have a Savage 110FP. I recently bought some 77grain Nosler match bullets, but have not tried them yet. I will let you know! Seafire, I like that picture! I think I told you that I had a cousin (RIP) who was a test pilot for these during WWII. Peter. Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee.

Seafire What is the C.O.L. you are using for the 77s? Do they work through the magazine? Thanks I learned everything I will ever need to know about "Islam" on Sept. 11th, 2001 | |||

Yankee D.. Sorry I can't answer that right now... I don't have any 77 grainers right now to measure them and my notes do not denote the OAL... like many of my handloads, I make a dummy round by pushing it into the lands.. and then backing of the seater die an 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn.... That is shot in my Savage 12 BVSS which I strictly single shoot, so I don't know if it can magazine stack them or not...It does have a long magazine.... Sorry I can't be any more exact that than..ya caught me 'out of stock' at the moment.... cheers seafire  Life Member: The American Vast Right Wing Conspiracy Jan 20, 2009..

It took me a few seconds to catch that one!  My first thought was that Savage did not make Sniders!  That was funny!  Regards 303Guy | |||
