[QUOTE="mountainman56, post: 965279, member: 79106"] Been emailing 4D about getting a Savage drop in chambered in 7mm Dakota. Now they tell me they won't do one on a standard shank in that chamber. They claim that Savage went to the large shank for safety reasons. Seems odd to me since the Savage standard shank is the same size as my Remington 700 in 300 ultra mag. On top of that it will be 14 to 15 weeks. Tried Pac-Nor but they will be 18 weeks. I'm stuck on this cartridge and I know I won't get it out of my system until I have one. Enough is enough. I know my way around a lathe and planned on buying one when I retired. I'm just going to jump my plans ahead a few years. I realize these people have more business than they can handle but I'm tired of being at their mercy and their time frame. On top of that there is nobody I can depend on within hundreds of miles of where I live. Going to suck it up, buy the equipment I need and see if I can avoid making tomato stakes. :D [/QUOTE]
