New to the Savage, have questions.

[JimG]

I've been shopping for a new ML for a few months now and have settled apon the Savage MLII. I really REALLY like the idea of the smokeless option. I will be buying a new laminate SS model. I know about the weight issue with the laminate and I'm fine with the heavy weight. Actually I prefer a heavy gun. However I know nothing about the process of shooting smokeless in the Savage. What do I need to buy if anything in order to do this? Any helpfull tips would be extremely appreciated. I did read one of the stickies at the top of the forum concerning bullet types. I love the 240 grain XTP so I'm sure I'll like the 250 grain XTP as well.

I assume I'll need a powder measure but is there anything else?

You need a Metallic cartridge reloader beam scale to weigh the powder. I would never recommend that you dip powders for smokeless. Check your PM's
