New Savage Stealth 10BA, move over again Ruger

[cmshoot]

Shep, did a little more research today on the AI, I guess Burnett used to run one and it was a 900 round barrel and you have to dial it down to meet PRS speeds

Buddy of mine used to shoot one. Very flat.

Yeh like 3400 fps flat.

Oh Yeh I shot a RPR set up for 200 high power today, slung prone, not a bad shooting gun 4 out of 10 in the 10 ring and the other 6 just out in the 9 ring. Not a bad shooting rifle.

This isn't the old Savage BA
It's the "new" BA Stealth 10/110 and it not only swaps mags it swaps barrels LOL
I'd say that's a 1 up maybe even more

Barrel swaps are stupid easy with the Savage system and the floating bolt make for a really tight lock up.

It's a much easier platform to tweak.

Don't forget that pesky fireforming step.

Where is the info on how the barrels swap? These appear to require an action vice and wrench like any other bolt gun. Then again, I could be wrong.

I don't mind fireforming, although I have no interest in the .243AI. Not my cup o' tea.

I've handloaded for quite some time, including rounds that needed fireformed. Currently, the only round I own that I have to fireform for is the .338-06 AI.

Doesn't Nathan Foster shoot that round?

No you're right but the threaded barrel lock nut makes it a snap and Savage developed it in 1958. It cut production cost and made for a very accurate rifle for less cost.

Oh and the floating bolt head is a replaceable part making changes easier too at less expense.
