[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2419245, member: 61747"] I've built a pile of savage rifles. I have truing reamers, bolt face cutters, lug lapping tools etc. They really don't need it due to the floating bolt head. Having said that, it was piece of mind more than anything, since they always cycled and shot very very well. They just feel weird due to the over cocking and how they cock. I would work over the bolt, firing pin etc and could get them to cycle with one finger. For a remington footprint action, I am highly sold on Zermatt bighorn actions. A custom with savage tenon threads, remington foot print, and a changeable floating bolt head. Nothing to not like here. I can run shouldered prefit, or prefit threaded barrels from many reputable barrel suppliers and swap out barrels and heads in minutes. [/QUOTE]
