    Savage Axis (&2) question - converting a short action to a long action?

    The Savage Axis line cuts costs in a few ways, one of them being that they use one action length for all cartridges, similar to Tikka.

    Protocol for testing Hunting Loads? Do you test extreme temp spread?

    I have been doing some reloading for target shooting and I have had some great results. I have not been hunting in a few years due to life/career/location changes and I am hoping to do some deer hunting this fall. My number one concern when preparing for hunting is doing everything I can to...
