what all can be done to the savage 110? i have a 30-06 that shoots good, but i want to improve this rifle for longer ranges. heavy barrel? trigger? action improvements? any help is great help. thanks, jason
jason i bought a savage 110 as i recall in 58 or 59, shortly after they hit the market. mine was a lefty in 06. if yours shoots well, i would leave it alone other than a little tweeking if necessary. an 06 isnt an ideal long range hunting cartridge. use it and enjoy it for what it is. it will certainly perform well to 500 yds. or so if scoped properly. get a decent scope with target knobs and 1/4 min. clicks. learn how to use it well. if you arent familiar w/ adding elevation to scopes for various ranges, just ask on this site. if you load, some of the excellant match bullets like the 168 sierra will perform well for you. when and if you want a gun capable of more performance, just invest in another gun. dont turn your back on savage when you do. they make an excellant and affordable long range rifle in numerous calibers.what all can be done to the savage 110? i have a 30-06 that shoots good, but i want to improve this rifle for longer ranges. heavy barrel? trigger? action improvements? any help is great help. thanks, jason
