Good gun
Sure they blow up - double load any ML it will go sky high.
I’ve owned about 9 of them. Still have one that I converted to .458 sabotless rig.
There are a lot of good loads out there. Go to savage arms and look under owners. They have an updated load section.
I have used 5744,4759 and others.
One of my biggest concerns were loose loads and it is my understanding this could cause ringed barrels. Be careful of that. You want a tight fit.
Savage posted loads will pull 2100 to 2300 fps.
Look at 300 grainers and harvestor crushed rib sabots.
I never bought these but if I stayed with stock I would have bought a Thor sizing kit. They offer 4 sizes of 50 cal full bore bullets and you test which one fits best.
You gun was designed on 300 grain pills....
