[QUOTE="stidsteak, post: 266609, member: 14159"] Lurking for quite a bit. I came to this site for more knowledge/entertainment and now I have a dilema of my own. Ok so I am faced with a dilema that cannot be solved with simply getting a tape measure and my weapon out of the safe as I am currently overseas. I am going to re-barrel my 2006 savage 110fp 300 win mag. Upon hearing my friend's advisory I ordered a barrel with threads for a large shank. As far as whether or not this was the right choice I don't know seeing as I've received conflicting information on this. My 2006 model has a "G" prefix to in it's serial number. What size is it? How difficult is it to replace the existing larger threads with the standard size without cutting off that part of the barrel completely (straight cylinder). Is it even possible to do that? If not I will keep the existing barrel and have it reamed for a larger cartridge (rum?) and get a new one made with the correct sized threads. It'd be nice to know soon so that I can have another barrel to shoot while I'm on R&R. 2006 savage 110fp 300 win mag serial number has a "g" prefix please help Oh I may as well tell more about the firearm in it's existing state. A-5 stock with thumbwheel adjustable coomb McCann Industries 20moa rails standard barrel w/muzzle break bedding underneath barrel only reason for barrel switch is the inability hold less than 3/4 moa [/QUOTE]
