I read where a guy who has the xbolt with 1-8 twist said its completely unnecessary. I agree. probably don't need to go over 160 gr bullet

Yeah, as like some comments and you said i have a 357, a 350, a 450 and 50 beo. It also doesnt help with the lack of factory loads.350 at least had that out if the gate. Thanks for the video!

take the 2 mounting screw off that hold your trigger on. Submerge the assembly in 91% alcohol overnight and it will dissolve the epoxy on the main adjustment screw that lines up with the hole in the trigger guard. Remove that blinded off screw which is now a stud thanks to savage and replace it with a crew that has a head and you're in business. the screw which has the screw driver slot in it can adjust the trigger pull weight but the blinded screw is the one meant to by ATA. If you adjust the one with the screw head to far the rifle will fire with the safety on. if you ignore this and adjust that one anyway don't go past 2 full turns and your safety will still work. ALL the newer ones have a blinded adjustment screw not just epoxy

Mine wouldn't shoot under an inch with 5 different factory ammo's. I free floated it today and glass bedded it as well I removed the trigger assembly and it's soaking in 91 percent alcohol to remove the resin epoxy that prevents the adjustment of the trigger . Savage has the main adjustment blinded off but i'm going to remover it after the epoxy is broken down all the way and replace the screw with one that has a head and it'll surely do better, the factory trigger was 6 pounds and creepy as heck

I don't reload so I'm waiting for more ammo options out there before I get one

I have the stainless and it’s very accurate 30-06 with a 4x12x40 vortex tactical scope!! It good out to 1000 yards and I have taken coyote out to 800 yards!

Should have bought a Howa model 1500 instead. They're not called precision rifles for nothing.

I’m running the same scope on my AR chambered in .350 and done me good for the price of it

Great videos. Keep them coming

Great video. Keep them coming. Take care

Ruger American and Savage Axis hands down have the Remington 783 beat for an entry level centerfire bolt action.

I have a 450 Bushmaster, 350 Legend, and 44 magnum rifle. I don’t need anything in between.

Mines a .375 Ruger. 8)

375 Ruger in a Ruger m77 without a doubt. They both recoil similarly why not take the extra horsepower. 375 has a lot more bullet options tailored to dangerous game than 338

Something funky happened with the audio at around 1:30-1:50

Just picked up a Ruger American Gen 2 today in 400 legend. The ballistics hit a sweet spot for me for my deer hunting application.

We get it, you didn't like the 400L. I bought one and have loved shooting it. I have found ammo at the local farm supply and gun store. The ballistics are superior to the 350 and it's less punishing than the 450. My 350 is now the kids deer gun since it's only upside is lack of recoil. I'll be carrying 400L.

👍👍👍👌👋

You need a torque tool that important for accuracy start out at 50 inch pounds and work you way up at five inch pounds. Then check and see it it hold steady. You may need to add some thread lock to the action screws. When you tighten the action screws hole the rifle pointing up a couple of light bumps then tighten the action screws that help to keep the recoil lug in the right place. Adjust that trigger as light you can get it. You can adjust your grip don't rap it around but put your thumb at rest raping around your steering the rifle. Two touching then a flier sounds like a bedding problem. If the bottom end is plastic the part the action screws go through that is not good. Magpul is plastic but where the action screws go through is metal bushing. That for the 700 savage I am not sure.

You're comparing it to rounds that don't have the capability of being fired from an AR15 with a double stacked magazine, that in theory could have a capacity of 20-30rds if someone made mags. The .400 is significantly more powerful that .350 Leg and unlike .450 Bush, .458 Socom or .50Beo which are only single stack in an AR15 it can go double. The Turkey's Opinion ran a hand loaded 165gr maximus solid from a 16" barrel and got 2783f/s 2837ft/lbs compared to a .308 24" 168gr BTHP running 2650f/s 2619ft/lbs. Perhaps the .400Leg is not being marketed correctly. I see it as being 10mm Ultra Magnum and the meanest high capacity AR15 footprint round for 300yrds or less. It's a real shame that the rifles and the magazines and the rounds have not materialized.

I hunt well under 100 yards so I'll sight my guns in at 25 yards. I get clovers with my Remington 783 in 270. I bought her until I could afford a Remington 700, but 10 years later, this little budget rifle hasn't let me down with about a dozen deer on her, so I'll keep using it. Her name is "Formality" because if I see something out there, I'm draggin' it out.

The 350 Legend has become so popular that I’m not sure people want to replace it with a 400. Obviously, it has more recoil, too. Also, there is competition from 360 Buckhammer, too (this may be minimal, but nonetheless). Then 450 Bushmaster etc. I agree that the 400 Legend has an uphill battle.

I’m addition to it feeding better than 350 Legend, it is achieving well over advertised velocity (up to 100 more fps), which is nearly unheard of.

The BIGGEST positive the 400 Legend has is that it has slightly more taper from the base to the start of shoulder AND that makes it feed MUCH better than the 350 Legend, particularly in the Savage rifles and Ruger Americans.

God bless and thank you for sharing that video and what an awesome rifle.

🙏😜❤️‍🩹😜🙏

Thank u brother for the story about the Savage 99 & showing it to us, it’s awesome ! Thank u most of all for your testimony & your obedience in spreading the Love of God & the plan of salvation! I appreciate ya & am glad to have a brother on Christ like you ! Keep the videos coming !!

That is the best story I've heard in 40 years. Thank you for sharing that with us. I love to see people with integrity that always puts God first, but also from a worldly perspective that savage 99 indeed was a very fine gift and i hope you enjoy it all of your days on earth.

The 7mm-08 is a great cartridge by the way. I believe it's the flexible stock that's causing all the accuracy problems.

The problem is the bench rest is too far forward. Because the stock is too flexible, this style of shooting causes the for-end to touch the barrel. Hence your poor groups.

That is a cool round and gun! I was really impressed how the bullets performed.

Yea your data is flawed or "claimed". Its real close between these. But like most all data diameter is never a inclusion. But absolutely makes a difference!! Remember none start out @ .400.

I have had one on order all summer... I could have bought a Savage or a Mossberg. But I want a Ruger Predator or Std. I have ammo molds and dies in hand. If I dont see it next month Ill buy the Savage.

Another favorite!! I mostly use my own cast 330hp. But in my AR I shoot the 300 FTX MUZZLE LOADER BULLET @ 1950 fps.

I handload, Im using a Denis Furry 170g sp. accurate and good expansion. My velocity is almost 2300 fps

God bless Want to hear more on how it groups Thank you

Great vid, on your accuracy the 110 TH reviewes ive seen the stock might be touching the barrel given how its cradled the 110 TH has been more accurate than what youre seeing with every ammo ive seen tested. Can you see if the stock is touching? Ahhhh rings...yep makes sense

New subscriber first vid of yours I've seen, bro you need a Rode wireless Go II Lapel mic...about every 4th word is not possible to understand, and it goes super hot at times. The Rode will dramatically improve your audio and even get ya some AI on sound suppression... For not a pile of $

Does it come in win mag or just wsm

They brought out the 400 too late. If it would have camr out before the 350 I figure it would have caught on.

400 legend is a fine caliber. More energy than 350. Less recoil than 450 bushmaster

Save your $$$. Get a different caliber that you would use more. Just my opinion though.

option 3, 416 Ruger lol

Audio sucks……

Looks like a winner . Keep working on it.

Hey, doesn’t have anything to do with your video but I wanted to let you know that PSA has some of those Sig Buckmasters 3-12x44 scopes on clearance right now . I just ordered a couple for Christmas presents. I know I had seen that you have used those in some of your videos

the problem for the 400 is that the 350L does so much with so little room left between it and the true big bores ( 450,458 , 50 beuwoulf) that the 400L Really doesn't have much left to offer

I have been wondering about them. I was looking at the Savage Ultralight 280AI. But i wanted a 1@8 twist 24-inch barrel or longer. I would have bought it. If it would've had a faster twist. So i went with a Browning rifle. A Xbolt Hells Canyon Speed Long Range 280AI. Topped it with a Leupold. A VX6 HD 4x24x52mm TMOA reticle scope. I put this setup together. To take on a spring bear hunt next spring. In Idaho or Montana hopefully. Now its load development. Planning on trying several different brand bullets. Nosler Accubond LR 150 168 gr Hornady ELD X 162 175 gr Hornady ELD M 162 180 gr Berger 150 168 gr Classic Hunter Berger 168 gr VLD Berger 175 gr Elite Hunter. I have hunted with a 280 rem for many yrs. My wife uses a 280 Rem. But she may go bear hunting with me. And i was looking at this rifle. For her to use . Add a good muzzle brake. Upgrade the scope. To a 4x12 or a 4x16. I like the green color too.

Jacketed has been 748-170 Hornady for 40+ years 2400-170 is my cast load.

375 Ruger and a big cal pistol with high round capacity
