Dont lose your mag on da way to the deer stand, when it's NLA and the last one available anywhere that I could find was 110 miles away.
Expensive lesson

Yep. That rifle is from the staggered feed, pre-accutrigger era. Gotta be close to 20 years old by now. May be able to get a couple spares from Numerech Arms or Brownells. Keep one in the rifle, another in the truck, and another in your hunting pack. Don't want a repeat of this....
i have always wished my 110 had a detach mag, until now.
Looks like I can get blued for $50 and SS for $63.
I forgot and left the mag for my Browing A bolt 270 at home years ago. Single shot rifle for the weekend. I was "lucky", never saw any deer to shoot.
only takes one.
i had to stop by my reloading buddies place since the damn excavators seem to multiplying at my range. both .243 handi ultras shot almost the same hole. dude was impressed, said not many TCs do that well.
of the 06 rounds he loaded, the set out ones showed over pressure signs. lesson learned, hes gonna pull and reload them. standard length shot right where they always did, no signs of over pressure. hes taught me a bit already, when i get set up i'll have a leg up.
yes. i had never seen that but he knew what was up. she didnt group well with those two either.
My 7mag flattens em a bit, only sees 3-4 rounds a year. Loves the 140gr Barnes triple shocks, with 67 or 68grains of imr4831 behind it. I’d have to double check.
lol, yeah 4831 and barnes 165s. i forget the grains but he has it wrote on the box. Charlies good about that so i can duplicate it when i start loading. the savage will put these into less than an inch if i do my part. i couldnt find a factory load to do that.
When we started usin Barnes bullets, about 2004, the first recipe book said 68.5 gr max load, we figured a half gr less should be good... next years book said 67gr max, we changed nothing, ragged one hole groups at 200yds.
I have a 110 and was thinking the same dam thing, hope yours has a wood stock, mine is a polymer stock, 06, it's not nice to shoot, but you can hike all day with it no problem.
