[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 830440, member: 6705"] Don't touch your action threads if you ever want to use a prefit barrel. You can send your action to Stockade or SSS for a time and true. They will face the action and barrel nut in relation to the action threads. They will also true your bolt head lugs and abutments. They will also recut the cocking ramp and install a bolt lift kit to reduce the force needed to lift the bolt. All said, everything they do has very little to do with accuracy, but will greatly improve the function of the rifle. There are many things a regular person can do to improve a Savage action. Polish the cocking ramp, adjust the trigger, and fire several hundred rounds will usually fetch the biggest improvements. [/QUOTE]
