[QUOTE="44-40, post: 2849857, member: 126985"] First you can try to use a Remington 700 recoil lug for the 1.0625" the dia Savage it is the same basic diameter only the thread pitch is different. They don't knock off metal when machining. It's machined to a specific "tolerance"...tolerences allow variables. But you must make all the threads fit those tolerences for that size. So everything bolts together, to standardized industry specifications. SAE .. Savage 1 1/16"X 20 must also conform to machining standards. Depending on the class of thread that is desired 2A or 3A. Actual toloerece 2A dia 1.0611" to 1.0530" and 3A 1.0625" to 1.0544" Savage runs on the loose side 1.0550" Remington dia 1.060". Generally...I personally run 1.060" to 1.061" and snug fit, with lube. Industrial exceptions in threads can exist for specific industrial purposes, like taps for threading zirconium parts in a reactor core, not readily available to the general public. I would bore the hole out on the mill fixture I made for recoil lugs, as I true up actions and recut the action threads, do my barrel tennon is 1.071" so all recoil lug ID holes must be enlarged. Being a grumpy old machinist and find this stuff easy, and hard to comprehend why people just don't fix it....but then I can't play like a real violinist who would have no patience with me. [/QUOTE]
