Thanks edi..
Had it out this morning for a barrel break in and a zero for 150 gn fed powed shok ammo and after a 15 rnds of clean shoot clean shoot I shot a 5 shot 1.25inch group at 200yds.......The muzzle break works a treat...Just a nice sharp crack out of it and respectable recoil......

The recoil with the break on is good.Its not spooky at all.I was expecting worse....And no lift just a nice push in the shoulder....

That is one fine boom boom stick Dwighet, enjoy and safe shooting.

Cass

Met up with dwight and clivej and a few other lads today and got to fire the "boom stick". Sweet as a nut. No recoil to talk off and very accurate regardless of ammo. Not a spectators sport with the muzzle break, , but my God what a rifle.

Cheers dwight and clivej for the shooting and the info on the Savage issue.

Ez.

dCorbus

Goddamn it!:D:rolleyes:
The flippin' flip of the one weekend I'm not around!
Jealous, that's what I am!:D:D:rolleyes:

Must have been a bit of a queue!

Delighted to hear the new bang-bang boom stick shoots as well as she looks.:)

Was a good day out Ez....The rifle got a good work out and so did I.... Concentrateing on putting the xhair on the little dot a long way away can wreck ones head..

Cass

You've no excuses now lad, the rifle is doing her part............:p .

Seriously, some good shooting and she held up well to it. Its a splendid piece of kit.

I must say I am well impressed with its performance for its first decent outing... It will only get better as it settles down...

roosman

this rings a bell ..were ye in Midlands saturday with the new boom stick ? seem to remember a certain muzzle brake blowing paper targets off tables amid consternation etc, and much appreciative comments on a certain lovely rifle... I was hiding down the end of the 300 metre line with a black .308 ..

Cass

Hardly the one with the stainless fluted barrel and mod was it?

roosman

no, its an all black Remington and no mod...

Cass

Have you now.

dwighet

There was lads and paper scattered!!!!! I had the best spot.....right on the trigger;)

It wasn't me!

Trigger's the only place to be. Being beside it was like being slapped! Crackin bit of kit though. And not too bad, even without the muzzle brake. Wish you well with it, dwighet.

fair play to ya.... your the only one that shot it without the brake...

Well manageable. Only a little extra felt recoil. That little Blaser now... I like that you picked it up and laughed.

Still, shame nobody had a camera. Recoil doesn't mean much when you're shooting, but it would have been interesting to see the external effects of it on me!

roosman

I was 10 feet away and I could feel the shockwave, even through my ear defenders it was painfuly loud..there was a funny moment when a guy sittin beside you nearly tumbled off his chair when hit by the blast .. as you said the safest place is on the trigger..Problem with such a nice rig is that the shooting enjoyment overcomes the pain of feeding it expensive ammo...308 is so horribly expensive that we are left with no option but to roll yer own...now where can i get me some powder, projectiles & primers...
