The bad thing with the Encores is that you need ( or at least I do) to keep a scope on each barrel... The #1's that I have are wonderful to shoot and very accurate. I did add limbsavers on both,...

I look around in my room here and it scares me as to how much I've sent on handloading and bullet casting..:eek:
So does that mean the Savage will stay in the store? I have a model 12 BVSS-S in .308 that shoots almost any jacketed 165 -168 grain bullet into very small groups at fairly far ranges. I haven't...
They have a tendency to be that way....;)
I don't feel too bad. With my Mod. 12 BVSS-S in .308 at 200 yards mine will do 1/2 moa or better with Ultramax loads. I also get sticky bolt syndrome with a 165 grain bullet and 45 grains of Varget....
My Savage Model 12 BVSS-S is a .308, has a heavy barrel and is a single shot, and very accurate. It also weighs over 10 pounds, so if I take it for a walk in the woods it will end up in my box...
Hello. I have some Lee molds, but most of mine are RCBS molds. They are good and heavy, and with RCBS' guarantee, are hard to beat, altho you will have to buy handles for them. There are others that...
Welcome... We's here to confuse you as best we know how!:happy59:
If you can walk to Alabama backwards from Yankeeland, and Kiss my ring, then I shall see. I may humor you by issuing a Papal Bull....
My 22-250 is a 15 inch Encore pistol, and while working up some loads I started with 35 gr of Varget and some 55 gr. Hornady soft points. Accuracy off the bench was phenomenal, and when I recuperate...
Howdy!
Yeah, and I'm the Pope.
I ain't so sure I want to hold a load like that. I don't think my elbow would take it!Kinda leaves my .480 with 22 gr. of H110 and a 400 grain bullet out in the cold!
E-8 ? My Dad made E-7
Is there still a Master Gunny anymore? I've been away for a long time!
Oh-oh, I believe the proper term is "Gunny."
This is what I got opening day, 2007...

She made really good sausage!
I hit one hard with my Encore pistol, but is ran onto another's lease, and I didn't want to get shot or arrested, so I had to let it go. I shot over the back of one with my ,480, never cut a hair....
I really can't say why my son doesn't like Federal brass. He just likes Winchester, or Weatherby brass for his .300 Weatherby Mag. We have both found out that Federal Match primers make a world of...
Durn, Versifier, you beat me to most of the answers.:(
Other than that, I can say that my son has the same rifle, and it will shoot the 165gr. gamekings very well.
My Ruger #1 likes varget...
I don't have a lot of experience with my 7mm Rem Mag, but the two shots that I took on deer in the last two seasons dropped the deer in it's tracks. The first was a shot with the deer facing me at...
I have a 15 inch Encore pistol that's a 30/06....:happy13:
I have 2 Ruger #1B's, one is a 30/06 A.I. and the other is a 7mm Rem mag. I can't say that I like one more than the other, it would be like choosing between your kids!
I changed to a Burris 2x7 Posi-lock ballistic plex...

I've been using the ramrod from my smokepole to do the .480 with.....I think it's a tad too long!
Looks nice! How far does that thing fling brass?
