Hey guys. I was hoping someone here might shine some light on the Model 750. I always wanted a hump-back and have alway owned Savage, so it seemed like an inherent decision I choose this old gun. I am very familiar with the Auto 5 by Browning but don't seem to remember the recoil being so stiff. Is this the nature of the flat wound spring utilized by Savage, or is it warranting replacement parts? I just wanted another opinion on the matter. For reference-it feels about the same as a 110 30.06 with a metal butt plate. Rings/friction pieces are good and installed in both light and heavy positions with not a great deal of improvement, though noticeable. Can the recoil spring and friction parts be interchanged with the round-wire springs of the same era Brownings? Thanks!
