As said the Savage is 1:9, some of them stabilise the 75 Amax for longer range antics but mine doesn't like them. The 75 BTHP and 77 SMK are both shorter than the Amax and stabilise a bit easier but I haven't tried them in mine.

Yeah no problem. Plenty of people using 50gr in Savages with good results. Even the 40gr I suspect would be ok.Quote:

Haha, hardcase, the training ammo is the only cases I have had failure to eject with my Howa, they always extract but the odd one just ends up lying there loose and I have to clear it with my hand.Quote:

I've got the savage weather warrior in .270 and have got no complaints at all. Really good rifles once your past the axis etc

Which ever feels the best for you as they are both in the same class for reliability. You pays your money you takes your chances.
