    What do you shoot in your Savage Edge/Axis


    I shoot 150 Grain CORE-LOCT .308 and just the other day I loaded some 165 Grain SST .308 to try. I hope to try them next week.

    Here's a .308 outside-outside measurement of 4 shots using 175gr Sierra Match Kings @ 100 yards.



    Sorry it's so small, I re-sized it for use as a signature pic.

    And here's my Savage 111FCNS Accustock with 3 shots @ 100 yards (.270 win) using Hornady 130gr SST.

    175gr Sierra Match King - Federal Gold Medal Match Factory Ammo.

    And, shamefully, it's not out of a Savage... It's out of my .308 AK-47... :-P

    Here she is Snuggling under my Savage .270....

    #1, I only have one .308... and it's that AK.
    #2, you should try the 168 and 175 Federal Gold Medal Match Ammo.... It's VERY nice.
