[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 823265, member: 105"] I quit buying Savage rifles due to the extreme amount of time that barrel break-in and cleaning was causing me not to mention the expense. When I finally bought my first bore scope I quickly learned why they fouled so badly... LOL These days my rifles come almost exclusively from the Remington and fouling is minimal and easily dealt with. I'm just about done buying rifles though and think I'll either have rifles built or rebarrel my current ones with high quality custom barrels to further shorten barrel break-in and load development and increase accuracy. I think it's false economy to buy cheap rifles and/or barrels if your time is worth anything at all... Don't get me wrong... I love tinkering with my rifles, handloading, and shooting but don't like all the extra time it takes to keep cheap barrels clean and shooting well. YMMV [/QUOTE]
