[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2693144, member: 93138"] I am very sure that I'm not the first to think about using the center-line of the action's barrel tenon threads as the base-line for squaring the action, but it was a new idea to me and I've not seen it mentioned much less discussed. Maybe with good reason and maybe not. Assuming that it is a valid idea then the relatively inexpensive tools sold for squaring a Savage action make one of them a very good choice for a starter rifle. FWIW, 150,000 psi is the tensile strength of the extremely common SAE Grade 5 hex head bolt. It sounds like a big number, but in the world of high strength steels it really isn't. [/QUOTE]
