[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 1298992, member: 6705"] It doesn't sound like a BA. Just a regular 110 in 7mm. Still at $275, it's a good price for a donor. Savage isn't well suited for the long RUM or 300weatherby based rounds unless you are ok with a single shot. They can be done in repeater, but it's problematic. If you need a repeater, I'd suggest the Nosler line of mags. 26, 28, or 30 Nosler would be excellent. About as big as the Savage will handle as a repeater. Ditch the barrel, stock. You'll also want to upgrade the recoil lug and bolt handle. You'll also want to find out if it is a center feed or stagger feed action. [/QUOTE]
