Project 750 and competition..

[ywhic]

I am new to bolt actions and my first is a Savage 11 'Hog Hunter' in 308.. (with Accu-Trigger)

I have gongs out at 450 & 750 yards and my buddies Sav 10 (Police 20" bull barrel/threaded) 308 wasn't consistently hitting...



I ordered the Savage 11 to see if I can do it cheaper and better..

We plan on adding a 1000 yard gong setup soon as well.. and since I got the 11 coming in we decided to compete yet help one another..

What I got inbound..

Savage 11 'HogHunter' 308 with 20" barrel (and threaded) $428
Mueller 4.5-14x40 APT (mil-dot) Tactical Scope $164
Low Quad Lock Rings $20
Weaver Brand 20 MOA base $38
Cheap 9-13 Bi-Pod $38

Total outlay is $688..

Hes got:

Savage 10 FPSR with 20" Bull Barrel (and threaded) $690
Sightmark 4-16x44 Triple Duty Tactical Scope $130 (was on sale)
Weaver 20 MOA base $38
Medium 6 Lug Rings $22
Cheap 9-13 Bi-Pod $38

Total: $938


He has had good luck with Fed OTM 168gr in his Model 10 and got sub-MOA at 100 yards.. so we may try using that ammo in both..

I have had LOT of round with 308's in my old Saiga 308 and my old AR-10.. something like 4000 rounds.. so I am hoping experience pays off..

Stay tuned..
