Savage 10TR le/military
- Thread starter damullet
- Start date
I had purchased a 10TR way back when they first got out.
I had a few life bad lucks and sold it before scoping it as it was the wise thing to do at the time.
Now this new 10TR seems a little different, as in the savage logos changed, looks a bit better finished if my memory is good, rail screw holes are clean and aligned in the receiver.
Also comes with a 10 round mag now.
Now to test fired it asap to check if it doesnt shoot for the moon
What is the go to place to buy these new 10tr's?
Got mine fron SFRC on top of page.
They are good to deal with, or so i have heard.
When you get a package in good functional condition hard to judge a shop

A strap wrench should work
I had my 10TR changed over to 6.5 creedmoor. Im pretty sure the barrel nut the ridges for the standard wrench to work, can you post a picture? If yours is completely smooth I'm pretty sure wheeler makes a wrench that will work for it.
The barrel nut is perfectly smooth. As I making research on internet, it looks like guy's just remove the smooth barrel nut with a pipe wrench and throw it away, replace it with a new standard one which fits the wrench. A bit different look on the rifle tho...
I read that the factory recoil lug from savage is horrible made, the thickness varying everywhere, so better purchase another well made one. I believe that it can help the accuracy as the recoil is distributed evenly on the stock where the lug is touching.

This is what I used to re-barrel my Savage. Reused the same barrel nut with no marks on it.
Please tell me more.
Original mags work right since it's short action?
did you have to ream chamber, or did you get a ''drop-in'' barrel?
Original mags work just fine. It was just a barrel swap, I used a Shillen SS match bull barrel. Was around the 500 mark. Then I put it in a McMillan stock. She's a beaut.
