Phil you are a thinker for sure, those guns are "Hammers" and a hoot to shoot. Low recoil and low noise with the can, they are dead nuts accurate as well, what's not to like?
Innovation is very welcome here and obviously you are an innovator.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am going to start a new thread about this build so all the information is in one place. I can say for certain that the .178 group was not a fluke because today I shot 5 3 shot groups with the same load at 100 yards and the largest group was .540 with a called pull.

Anybody have any idea's on making a savage ml 2 shoot better or a rebuild? This is kind of a tricky question. Since this is a new build thread. I would suggest that you start a new thread that deals with " how to improve your Savage MLII accuracy. Just a suggestion Drop

Summer project?? Looks like I'm gonna try to build a "beanfield" hunting gun for the August shoot and any hunting season. Well looks like it will be a new barrel on my original MLII, then some stock work or a new Boyds. Even now on a search for glass of a sufficient power and durability to handle SML and help old eyes. Every trip to Richmond I'm in the Cabelas Bargain Cave looking for a deal on glass. Things are tight as the wifes vehicle died and had to use up a bunch of $ for a tranny and axle, can't do the "new car pmnt" thing just now. That is why my 700ML donor is sitting idle and will have to wait until finances smooth out for any real work. Have enough $ coming in for a drop in MLII barrel from Hank, sold one of my precious #10 auto shotguns, I still have my best #10 on hand. If all goes well I'll be at the shoot in August and put some rounds down range this session. will also bring some stuff for the kitchen and if I'm not helping HB score targets I'll be in Deadeyes kitchen. I do plan to make fried bread/biscuits this session. Hope all well and stay safe. 10
