[QUOTE="MachV, post: 300013, member: 93"] If your gonna have a smith chamber/thread and true an action then any action can be set up for a switchbarrel. The bigest advantage of a Savage/Stevens is the nut!! YOU can change them back and forth yourself. Its easy and fast to swap out barrels...specialy if you say with the same bolthead. If you are gonna swap a couple of barrels back and forth often then just drill the nut for a set screw and mark the barrel and action so they go back to the same spot every time. The scope will have to be reset with a barrel change but if you make a keep track of the scope settings they dont change very much. I dont change barrels as often as I used to, actions are fairly cheap here so about the only time I swap out barrels these days is if I get tired of a cirtain calibar or a barrel whares out. [IMG]http://photos.imageevent.com/cjnmn/guns/websize/Sav.jpg[/IMG] Just picked up another action/stock the other day, still trying to decide what barrel to put on it.....Leaning twards the 708 sporter barrel for a lite walking big game unit???
