PowellSixO, CDI Percision has the bottom metal for you. CDiPrecision Gunworks I am doing a build with a Savage 11 in .308, with Boyd's Pro Varmint and CDI's bottom metal. Let me know if you are interested I also have schematics for doing the pillars and glass bedding. CDI also...

I have used lighter fluid and brake cleaner at different times. Both work equally well, however I think that lighter fluid is better as it seems to leave a little lubrication. Brake cleaner on the other hand leaves it chemically clean which is why I use it for prep before cerakote or...

My Multi-Cam Cerakote job on Win 70 in .223 my second camoflage job.

Thanks for the info Lone Hunter. I have a Ruger Model 77 in .25-06 however it is a much longer heavier rifle, although it is pretty much unbeatable for open ground hunting as it shoots as flat as anything I've ever used. The 250 Savage is more for hunting in more wooded areas as its...

Thanks Jigger

Thanks Larry!

I have old manuals, late 70s vintage that do have some data, however nothing on the new powders and heavier bullets that are now available. I had searched online and found very little and the newer loading manuals have dropped it completely. It is really an orphaned cartridge now as I...

Thanks FearNoWind and bigngreen! I did about a 100 different Google searches and the Hodgdon site never came up. I did forget to mention that the .250 Savage is also known as the .250-3000 as it was the first to drive a 80gr bullet if I remember correctly 3000 fps. I'll try CliffM also...

I have a almost 30 year old Winchester M70 in .250 Savage that hasn't had a box of ammo run through it yet. The problem is I cannot find either ammo or loading table for it. Couldn't even find brass, so I reformed some .22-250 I had laying around. It is a sweet shooting gun and I would...

Found LRH a couple of days ago looking for information regarding restocking my Savage 11 .308 and decided to join. Thanks for all the great information.
