[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 882231, member: 6705"] For a Savage action I'd use a long action. With a long action you don't have to worry about screw spacing, standard or magnum firing pin lengths or any of the other goofy stuff Savage has done with the short actions. Long actions are pretty much the same since the mid-1960's. Pretty much the only difference is stagger feed and center feeds. Really just how the mag box is attached. Everything else interchanges. I've built several wsm's on Savage long actions with great success. They are GTG. [/QUOTE]
