My rebored Savage 110E barreled action came back the other day; visually everything looks good, test firing report from the gunsmith looks good.
So, now begins the work of dropping it back in the stock, mounting a scope, deciding what/if any bedding is needed, and also working up a load for it; not necessarily in that order ( ? ) There's a few things going on there to keep track of! lol
This will be my 1st 'DIY customization'; so my question deals with what my first steps should be from where I am now with it?
With a store bought rifle, I probably would buy a box of factory ammo and head to range, once I got a scope I installed on it (a can of worms in and of itself) and see what it was printing for groups. Or, could I reload a starting load, and just use that to start to get an idea of what may or may not need to be done next?
