shaw barrel replacement.

[schwackerfox67]

Recently had a shaw replacement barrel put on my savage model 116. Changed over from 30-06 to 35 whelen. Used the barnes reloading manual with reloader 15 and a 200grain barnes tsxfb.

Test loads tightened up once i got up to 56 grains and 56.5 grains. 3/4 three shot group with 56 grains and 5/8 with 56.5. Pretty amazing with a 200$ barrel and the very first test loads. Cant be happier. The distance was 100 yards.

Glad to hear it's working out. I recently built a 30-06 bench rest rig using a Shaw barrel. Load testing is on going but the 190 grain SMK at 2700 fps is showing promise at 1k.

you need to do the OCW TEST..

I've shot groups under 1/2" at 200 yds with my 308 Shaw, one at .22". For the money I don't think you can beat these.

Had one in 338-06, shot great.
