[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1033159, member: 11960"] I'm a big fan of the savage target actions (I have 3) but they were never intended to run a Lapua sized case. The savage Lapua actions go through a different heat treat process to improve strength. I have a wildcat 375/404 improved that I run on a target action and that's about as far as I'll go. I have the same opinion of the Remington actions. There are an awful lot of smiths smarter than I am who don't recommend Lapua case heads on Savage or Remington actions. Just too much bolt thrust for the relatively small bolt body diameter is what I've been told. I'll need to check out the Panda action. Andrew [/QUOTE]
