[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 965319, member: 2736"] I think the reason that they have a problem with the Savage is that even though the shank is almost the same size, the barrel is also the 1.055 for the large shank and the Remington barrel shank is 1.250 everywhere but the threaded part. If you do away with the barrel nut then you can put a larger barrel shank on the action but it would/should be head spaced by a gunsmith. I always do away with the barrel nut and install all of the barrels on savages regardless of the threaded tenon size and it supports very large cartridges in the chamber area. The only problem with is that it is not a switch barrel any more. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
