    Anytime! Most all the folks here have WAY more experience than I do, and this forum is an incredible collective of wisdom. I'm a lifelong hunter, who is sure having a good time with these Savages and I really like problem solving.

    My hunting season got off to a good start a couple of days ago. 8 hours of failed stalks on skittish antelope left me with time for one more sneak before the sun went down. An unlucky buck decided to stare me down while offering a frontal shot at 200 yards. The target posted above told me what my rifle was capable of at that distance and I didn’t hesitate to set up and shoot. He didn’t run far.



    I have, with my shooting set up, struggled with different ways of gaining comb height. I’ve tried a couple of methods including an adjustable saddle/Kydex piece, various thicknesses of “shims” held in place with a neoprene sleeve; before trying one made by these guys http://www.cheeknstock.com/ A buddy loaned me his and it worked like a charm. I purchased one in dark brown with a 1 inch rise and I really like it.
