[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 774454, member: 2736"] I wouldn,t say it is a bad idea, just impractical and costly. If you use a Remington barrel you would have to turn the barrel down to 1" and re thread it to 1" 16 TPI You could take a barrel and cut the tenon off and turn it to 1 1/16th and thread it to 1 1/16 TPI and make a barrel nut if you wanted to convert a Remington or any other action to work like a Savage. OR you could just buy new savage barrels or take offs. The main reason that I eliminate the barrel nut is, less moving parts and fit tolerances, You can have a larger barrel shank (Normally 1.250 or 1.375) that adds strength around the chamber on large cases. And looks better IMO. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
