savage bolt rifle putting it back in?

My guess is that you have to partially insert it (as far as it goes) and pull the trigger, the front of the bolt might be catching on the sear, so thus you have to pull the trigger to let it go forward.\n\nI would also assume that if it came with literature of any sort that it would atleast have a basic break down precedure.

You wont hurt it, those things are made like tanks!  just unscrew and unbolt it.... there should have been a manual that came with your gun, it explains it there.

Well I am a big fan of Savage rifles but to be honest they don't sell for as much used as say Remington, Sako, Browning etc...\nIf it's the plain grade version the price will be in the $300 range.

The forward assist is used to "assist" the bolt to close if the recoil spring does not provide sufficient energy to do so.  It is intended to close the bolt for disassembly or in the case where the recoil spring is unable to do so.  It should not be used to clear obstructions/malfunctions to the movement of the bolt or to chamber a round of ammunition.

Yes, while I do not have a direct link to a source for you... I have been hunting there many times. While never using a Savage Smokeless... I have used many other blackpowder rifles, as well as a smokeless. As there may be zone specific requirements for muzzleloaders, you should check the Arkansas DNR website.

Have it done by a COMPETENT gunsmith. This is something you don' t want to take chances with.

disasemble the gun and fix it

If it is truly an antique, restoring it will DESTROY any value. If you want a shooter, buy a replica!\n\nIf it is an old gun, with little value, Brownell's gun supply carries anything you need, including instructions.

Send it to a gunsmith as far as I know, if there's an alternative I didn't find it for mine and it's heavy enough to be something I'd like to have fixed. \n\nThe second link, below, talks about some of the issues you are seeing. They recomend DIY modifications, not something I could recomend in these litigation happy days.\n\nThere are a few places offering instructions or instructional CDs on how to do your own. I've included one link below, naturally this comes with the usual caveats, if you monkey with your trigger according to these directions and it all goes horribly wrong don't come crying to me. Personally, when it reaches the top of my list I'll send it to someone who can do warranty work if they make a mess of it.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nIf I understand your question correctly, the answer is a big NO! \n\nThe .257 Roberts Improved cartridges that you have are not the same as factory loaded/SAAMI standard .257 Roberts cartridges. The .257 Roberts Improved is a wildcat cartridge that changes the physical dimensions of the cartridge case and will not fit in a chamber cut for the .257 Roberts cartridge. If you were to close the chamber of a .257 Roberts rifle, you will crush the cartridge case of the .257 Roberts Improved at the shoulder and possibly into the neck. \n\nYour best bet is to go and purchase factory ammo or reload standard .257 Roberts cases for your rifle. \n\nGood luck.

If you mean a Savage chambered for .243 Winchester, depends. Some shoot better with a light bullet, some prefer a heavy one. Different brands shoot differently, too. I'd go with handloads for accuracy. Float the barrel and bed the receiver, too.\n\nSavage is an ugly rifle, but the suckers shoot great.

Before you trade your gun, try using loc-tite on the threads of your mounting screws,I'm assuming your talking about a standard "Weaver" mount set up. Position your scope where you want it for shooting, tighten the front mount screw, back out the rear and put some thread lock on it, tighten it as much as you can, then do the same with the front screw. This is how we mount all out scopes on our sniper rifles, if you have a different set up, feel free to e-mail me

it uses a barrel made for it.  check the threads if you wish to change it

Good hunting rifle, available in many calibers.  Can be quite accurate, some top-notch, some just okay (but usually very good).  Company is still in business.  Parts available if anything breaks.  Like most Savage rifles it can have its barrel switched easily to other calibers.  Custom parts available (better triggers, scopes, new stocks, etc.)\n\nEarlier answer was odd but he's right BE SAFE FIRST.  Always know what you are shooting at, don't point it at anyone (ever!), make sure there is a backstop when shooting for fun, etc.
