(The Obsolete single shot pistol thing? Uh, yeah..ok.)
Was a matta? You no likie??
One of the best single shot actions ever made and still is. Hit steel out to and past 400 + yards with no issues, and that's with a 10" barrel.
All of my Savage rigs are set up as "single shots".
No ejector springs or rods. Case stays on the bolt head till "I" take it off.
And no chasing brass, ever.
The Remington XP 100 just happens to work smoother that any Savage ever will!!
Trying chambering a Savage to .221 Fireball. Get it to feed? Get it to extract? Good luck with either.
How bout chambering to a 20 VT or 20 SCC? Or 17 VHA? The list goes on and on.
