Savage Rifle question - The Firearms Forum

gun runner · 11-12-2012, 02:57 PM

Im looking for a model of a Savage .308 caliber rifle with a wood stock and a bull barrel. Could someone tell me the exact model(s) of this type of weapon? I bought a Savage .308 but now I want one with a bull barrel.

Thanks

John

Try sharpshootersupply.com these guys know everything about savage. I have even built several long range firearms on steven actions with their barrels.

Give jim briggs a call at northland shooter supply. His number is (763)682-4296

Order a varmint contour CBI or McGowen barrel, a nss recoil lug and a stainless nss barrel nut. It will take 8-10 weeks to arrive, then drive up to my neck of the woods and ill help you put it together and bed the stock

Ditto Josh's suggestions, especially the part about getting his help it'll make the
whole project easier and you'll end up with a tack driver.

If you decide on a Criterion barrel order now, prices are going up Jan. 1.
