[QUOTE="liltank, post: 506883, member: 13275"] If you plan on switching out the stock, I would suggest getting something in the non-Accustock combination. If you plan to keep the stock, then by all means go with the Accustock. Your barrel contours sound good. Putting the barrel on and off is relatively easy. I have put a couple Savages together with good results. Make sure you buy the proper tools. I use the wheeler engineering action wrench and barrel nut wrench. You don't need a barrel vise if you have the action wrench. Another option is calling Savage and ordering a rifle. They use to make a 112 BVSS. It was a long action on a laminated stock with pillar bedding. They have an internal mag and everybody that has owned one on this website has been rather pleased. From my understanding you can call and get one put together to your specifications for about $100 more. I personally like the laminate stock better than their synthetics. Again if you are changing out the stock, then its a non-issue. Bolts, firing pin, and headspace is easy to do. One of the best aftermarket stocks I have seen for Savage is made by Stockade stocks. He builds stocks specifically for Savage rifles. As far as the LRH is concerned, they use a lighter contour barrel. It comes with the muzzle break and the longer barrel. With that said, from my understanding the barrel is actually around 24 to 24.5 inches due to the break accounting for the OAL of the barrel. The Karsten cheek rest is fairly in expensive and can be bought online. If you have questions about the cheek rest or want information, I have an email from Karsten I sent requesting price info. It also has a detachable box magazine. I can tell you from experience the DBM is difficult to find an aftermarket stock for. Like I said though, Stockade offers stocks that can be inleted for the bottom metal for the Savage factory DBM or drop plate. B&C offer stocks that work well with internal mags. I think McMillian and Manners will make you a stock as well. Tank [/QUOTE]
