Anyone had experience increasing the 2 round WSM mag capacity on the Savage Model 16 mags?

A third up the spout is not an option.

Savage after-market magazines. Are there any available to suit a Model 16 "Weather Warrior" in 7WSM, especially with a greater than 2 round capacity?

Thanks.

What's the general opinion about this scope?

Very handy for switching between HMR & 22LR, very light & unobtrusive but ... I've got to say I find it most uncomfortable with that small occular lens ...

Thanks Steve. How are the Lee Collet Dies different to a regular (Redding) NKS Die?

Has anyone seen or used these? They are a Sinclair catalogue item so I'd expect them to be half decent. I may be wrong.

Ed, I started to NKS Winchester and Remington brass that were fire formed in the chamber (.243).

I then found that these would then have difficulty chambering and the bolt handle locked forward, re ...

I wanted a good extended range bunny and fox rifle - something with a bit more reach than 22LR and liked what I read about HMR. Quite frankly the 17M2 made no sense.

I've always liked the Sako qual ...

Has anyone had experience with a non-concentric breach in a 700 SPS?
