[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 550464, member: 29890"] Like I said earlier, work on a savage yourself, I'm not a prefessional gunsmith, but if you have a new prefit barrel and bolt head, I can turn a model 116 in 30-06 into a 300 win mag in less than 30 minutes, point is they are simple and also held to tighter tolerances than back in the day, the savage 110 platform predates the model 700 by 4 years, in that time they made a few changes! Also they make a model 10fcp-McMillan since you stated that was your stockpreference, but even the low end savages in tupperware stocks are free floated on 2 pillars the model 12 target and lrp single shot rifles rest on 3 in a laminate or HS stock and their trigger can be adjusted in minutes from 6oz to 3lbs,I have had one go down to 4oz. These days I get 700 actions to do customs, factory rifles I buy are savage, tikka, and vanguard/howa 1500. [/QUOTE]
