[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 94759, member: 25"] You guys are very defensive of 'something", calm down, things will go where they will go. I just talked with another industry leader and he said what Tony said, but you guys go enjoy your toys. With all due respect, I get tired of hearing Savage owners blowing their horn and telling everyone that smokeless is the only way to go. Everyone has his choice, go play and have fun, let it be. A guy I know was recently buying an inline. He picked one out, had it on the counter. A guy he did not know told him he was making a mistake, talked him into a Savage. Drove two hours back to his home and set it on the bench. Then he read the instructions and he found out he needed a powder scale. Did not have one, did not want one. Said to hell with this, preferred to simply drop a couple or three pellets. Drove two hours back the next a.m. and swapped for his original choice. Show you that smokeless is not for everybody. His daughter shot a fine antelope with the inline so he is very happy. Sometimes I wonder if the guys who bought into the Savage rifle are a bit insecure that their toys are really as good as they hoped. New black powder substitutes make cleaning simple. Matter of fact all we need to do is run a patch soaked in moisture displacing oil down the bore (Knight Oil) and rust is not going to happen. No boiling water, not scrubbing, just fill the residue with oil and no rust. Tony figured that one out a long time ago, thats all we do when we are on traveling hunts. I have left rifles in that condition for several weeks with absolutely no rust. Interesting reading, appreciate all the neat info you guys are sharing. [/QUOTE]
