Picked up my now 3rd Savage rifle to add to the collection. A 110 Ultralite in 6.5 PRC. Ordered it online from smga.com and shipped to local FFL.

In the past my guns have come with stickers on the stock and a tag on the trigger guard. None of those were there. The bolt face seemed awfully dirty so I cleaned it and then cleaned the barrel. Good god was it DIRTY. This normal? Do they shoot these Proof barrels in more than few shots? I know all/most guns get shot but this seemed way more than I've ever seen before.

Yeah..I should have taken before photos...but you know...new gun and all I was just excited to get it out and cleaned up.

Hopefully tomorrow I'll find out if she's a shooter or not...if she is...I'll probably not care anymore...if she's not...then maybe I will
