Fantastic article and a great read. Now I've got someplace to point people if they have questions like I see come up on the board all of the time when they want to spend small bucks but want big results.

Fantastic information written in a way that is easy to read and easy to understand.

Keep up the good work and if you've got more similar stuff ...... get it written.

nice article my 2 favorite brands are Remington and the savage I'm going to try the the savage model 112 LP in 300 win mag it comes in 25/06 or 300 win mag 26 inch tube laminate stock should be a good foundation for a long range rig ill go with the 300

Great article.

I have started my long range project with a Savage 7mm STW and Millet 6X25X56 Milldot scope. I am working on loads that are accurate and once that is completed I will start working out to longer yardage. I am zeroing at 200 yards. I have about $750 in the project not counting ammo. With this action, I can switch to many different big bore barrels.

I really enjoyed your article. I have been thinking of building a Savage for a while now. Does Savage have an action that can safely handle the 338 Rum and Lapua? Do the barrel makers you mentioned chamber these calibers?

Thanks

Lots of good advice , and i couldnt agree more on the choice of the stevens 200 as the base for a solid long range hunting rig.
