[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1036795, member: 63138"] Edd, Why do you think not chambering a Savage small shank barrel for a WSM is smart? The diameter of the Savage small shank barrel is 1.060" which is the same as a Rem 700. The large shank Savage measures 1.117". The large shank thus increases the metal wall thickness of the chamber by 0.0285" or 11.29% (assuming the chamber is cut to WSM dimensions). I have no expertise regards metallurgy. Is there anyone out there that can comment on this subject? [/QUOTE]
