    a good cordless screwdriver for field box?

    My drill is set up with a set of adapters that allow the use of 1/4-3/8-1/2" drive sockets.... I am assuming that you are still using the Phillips screws that came with the Savage. You can pick up a good #1#2#3 Phillips that will accept a 3/8 drive socket...works wonders.

    Experimenting with stock shocks.
