for a Savage, if you can get 1600, you're lucky...2/3a is the cell they run in 5 cell hump packs and anything larger won't fit. I fyou notice, the largest one on CBP.com is 1500...I love the custom pack builder and I use it all the time, but it SUCKS for hump packs.

...how is that not enough for you? I am using that in my X4.6 and will be in my XL...

You can build a 2500mah 5 cell pack yourself if you have the time. Five rechargeable Energizer batteries is what someone did.

yeah you can i bet you could fit 5AA's in there with some fancy wiring, and some hotglue i think you could do it.... tho sub c's definetally NOT, then again... if you ran a saddle maybe... tho you'ld have NO room for a failsafe, or reverse mixxer....
