I removed the thimble and ramrod.
Anyone else do this? I actually did this when I bought my savage 10 ML ,cause I really hated the factory syn. stock, so I bought a 95$ B&C duramax stock ,made for varmint model savages. It fit great but no hole for the ramrod, so I just packed it separate, while hunting. I eventually sold that and bought a factory laminate stock, and put the thimble and ramrod back on.
Now that the season is over, I took them off again, just to se how it would look again , along w/ the completely useless sights, and looks pretty cool a,nd seems to noticably cut down on weight . Im sure itll improve accuracy too, since there will be less interference w/ barrel harmonics.
Thoughts?
