[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2861436, member: 61747"] Nothing wrong with that. I’ve built a pile of rifles off the savage action and had excellent results. I’ve done a few with a ptg truing reamer, faced bolt heads, and chased race ways. I’m not a huge fan of the ptg reamer tho. If doing a switch barrel off a shoulder vs a nut, it makes more sense. If not, just squaring the action face and lugs is much easier if you have a lathe. If not interested in any of that, there are some bolt mod tricks that make running the bolt easier, less cocking force, smoother. I like the accutrigger just fine with a target spring and some polishing, but I prefer a rifle basix trigger for less pull weight, 16 ounces. [/QUOTE]
