Status: offline 		What's the stock savage spur gear...how many teeth? stock cb/sg teeth?

What's the benefits of changing it higher or lower?

I'm having problems stripping my spur gear. I need to learn how to set it up properly.

Status: offline 		Depends on the Savage. The original .21 Savage used a 52T spur and a 14T CB. All the .25s used a 49T with a 15T CB, but a 18T CB was optional. A 47T also came with the .25 Limited Edition version along with the standard 49T and it used a 15T CB or the optional 19T CB. All .28s used a 47T with a 17T CB.

Status: offline 		are you suppose to fold the paper in half or anything? to double it up?

and are you using actual notebook paper with lines?

Status: offline 		No fold. I find slighter thicker printer paper works better than thinner notebook paper.

Once you get a feel for what kind of play is supposed to be between the gears, you'll find yourself setting the mesh without the paper.

Status: offline 		Tell me if I'm understanding this correctly...put the piece of paper between the two gears and smash them together, tighten down the motor, and then pull the paper out and you should be good to go. They should be synced so that if you move the spur, it moves the clutch bell. But you should be able to move the spur ever so slightly without moving the clutchbell before they catch. is this right?
