[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 69186, member: 10"] b1g_b0re, Sorry, I do not recommend the Savage. I am not saying that it would not physically handle the round as a single shot platform but I have not seen enough data on the conversion to do it for a customer. The easiest way to do it is start with a Rem 700 LA and convert it to single shot with a permanently bonded bottom insert and then open the bolt face up to the big Wby case size and fit a M-16 style extractor designed for the 338 Lapua case. You have the receiver, you have the barrel, do you want 3000 fps with a 300 gr pill? We could easily do it!! Let me know. Your 375 is next so there is a bit of time to decide on the 338 front. IT will only work well as a single shot in the Rem 700 though in my opinion. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
