Dry fire question

[Bunky-Shooter]

Years ago i had the same question and i contacted Savage. The representative assured me it would not damage the firing pin by dry firing..

No problems dry-firing any centerfire firearm- whether a rifle or pistol.
It's how you practice- learn the feel of the trigger, and know exactly how/when it breaks.

Dry-firing is a no-no with rimfires, however.

I was going to add "do not dry fire rim fired rounds) but thank you for getting it out

It's been my practice to place a fired cartridge in the chamber and that
includes rim fires. I made nylon dry fire plugs for my Smith & Wesson
J-Frame target pistols.
