[QUOTE="Jared Jack, post: 1817854, member: 111119"] Hey everyone. This is my first thread so please bare with me. I’m currently in the process of building brush/spike camp/ scout gun. Light weight, compact, packing a punch, max range of 400yds. The donor is a older savage 111 side magazine release, in 30-06 with a 20” barrel. It was a cheap rifle I pick up for $150. I ordered a Boyd’s spike camp stock which I received yesterday and installed last night. I’m very Impressed with the quality of the stock and fit. It’s a bare bones light weight set up and easy on the pocket book.I will post some before an after photos soon. I would like to rebarrel the action to a 35 whelen in a 16”-18” length. Looking to shoot 240-250 grain. Out of a 1-12 barrel. Top it off with a 2-12x42 leupold. Im currently working with a fabricator friend of mine to produce a high capacity mag for the savage action. Hoping to double the mag size from 4, to 8 rounds. Any thoughts and advise would be highly welcomed Thanks. [/QUOTE]
