Thanks for the input.
I'll order up one of those springs.
Going to try and find some 68-69gr. Bullets.

Sounds like a nice rifle! Can't wait for the range report!!!
Be aware that not all match bullets are the same. I've had good luck with the Sierra SMK/TMK and the Hornady ELD's. But not the 'std' Hornady BTHP bullets. Nosler 69 and 77gn BTHP match bullets are close to the Sierra. Bergers are really good as well, but, even more pricy. They also like to loaded into the lands, which can be tricky.
My 110 Storm in .223 shoots the Frontier .223 55 grain OTM lights out. They are a little less expensive and worth at least a try IMO.
Had first Range day yesterday.
Did a short brake in then fired for groups.
Most groups were 4 shots, however the 2 groups shown are 5 shots. After each group I cooled the barrel with an air barrel cooler.
Seems most groups had a first round flyer taking them to about 1.5 moa. Love the Accufit AccuStock.
Nice crisp trigger, but a bit to heavy at #3.8
Savage is sending a new trigger spring, but won't send the target spring.
I will most likely replace barrel with a Shilen in
6 Creedmoore as I have a line on a Predator
in .223

Does that stock have pillars? If you are going to rebarrel it anyway and just bought it for the action get a stock that has pillars and is bedded. That will solve your 1st shot flyer issue, if it is even an issue.
