Remage/Savage build

280 AI. Criterion sporter BC stock Timney trigger. Northland shooters is the place to get everything you need. That and a good barrel vice and your set. I have also done a 7mag and 7/08 Remage for son grandson.

I just added them, I realized I forgot.

If you decide on a Shilen and the first few groups look like a shotgun load, don't give up on it. I had a 300 WSM Shilen that wouldn't group under 1 1/2" for the first 80 or so shots so I took it back to Mark Brown at Brown Precision. He inspected it and said he couldn't find anything wrong with the barrel so I took it back and shot it some more. At about the 125 round total groups now averaged under 1 1/4" so I continued to shoot it more. From about 200 + rounds, it got under an inch and after 300 rounds I was getting a lot of 1/2" five shot groups and all groups stayed under 3/4". I didn't expect this from a Match, frozen barrel, but it happens!!

Yes. I went with a 9 twist because it was in stock. Shoots 140-160's fine. 140 BT at 3200 is deer poison.

All three I have done with Criterion barrels. 2/3 shoot about 1/2 moa. The 7/08 is hanging around moa so far but probably has about 75 rounds down the pipe. I need to do some more load work ups just havent had time.

Prefits are fun

Who did the 338 Sherman barrel?

I recently put together this remage in .223 with a Patriot Valley Arms stainless, threaded 7 twist barrel as a range gun. It shoots better than me.

I have a 700 action in 30-06 that I'm thinking of re-barreling in 280, already have the mcmillan stock for it.

How's it shoot?

Not super fast with 22" barrel. This is the 213gr Hammer with Varget 22". Little faster and as good with 6.5 Stabal.
