After 50 years of shooting I just got my first Savage, an older 110 in 30-06 Ackley Improved. If anyone has any thoughts about this cartridge I would be interested. I love the way the bolt comes apart. I took my screw out in the rifle with the bolt uncocked - screw was just snug - which made the job a piece of cake. Of course, I had to cock it before reinstalling, easily done by pushing the button down on the work bench edge. But now I read somewhere on the internet - not in this forum - someone says you have to be careful to put the washer back in the same way. How could this possibly matter? I know thrust washers can break, could it hurt it to turn it around? I'm still a little clunky on this here computer stuff, but I'll check back often. Thanks, Doug in Virginia
