    PTG bottom metal for Savage

    Sorry for the delayed reply...it's been a very busy week at SHOT Show. The people who answer the phones, and the gentleman who prototypes the DBMs, are in completely different departments. The sales crew don't always have the most current knowledge about upcoming or recently released products...

    PTG bottom metal for Savage

    My PTG bottom metal on my FN PBR uses centerfeed mags. I've had nothing but reliable feeding. To use the double stack mags, the receiver would have to be milled out a bit; don't know if that's the same issue with your Savage.

    PTG bottom metal for Savage

    Some models are still being prototyped, but some are finished and available. I know the websites are being updated and integrated, but maybe this will help: SAVAGE PERFORMANCE

    bottom metal options for savage short action

    I talked with them today: the Savage L/A is being prototyped as we speak, with the S/A soon to follow. It shouldn't be much longer now.

    Which DBM for stock currently inletted for BDL bottom metal?

    +1 PTG. I use their DBM on my FN PBR and I love it! It's a direct plug-n-play fit, no mods needed.

    Winchester Model 70, whats wrong with them?

    I believe it's going to use AI's AE MkI .308 Winchester 5rd Magazine. Being single-stack, it will fit the action with no modification to the receiver.

    Fn spr for Leo sniper if not what you suggest?

    FN calls the PBR a Controlled Round Push Feed. It has a huge extractor that will grab and hold a round similar to a true CRF, but you can also insert a round into the chamber and close the bolt; the extractor will snap right over the rim without damage. I have a PBR. The barrel and receiver...

    Winchester Model 70, whats wrong with them?

    No, PTG's M70 Stealth bottom metal will use AICS compatible mags. I check up regularly on this, as I have an FN PBR that I'd like to upgrade. On the upside, they're nearly finished prototyping their M70 bolts; something else I'm looking forward to. They should be in full production very soon.

    barrel threading

    You're definitely better off having an experienced gunsmith do the job. Even a capable machinist might cut the threads concentric to the OD of the barrel, instead of concentric with the bore (unfortunately, those are not always the same thing). Tornado Technologies is another good source for...

    FN Patrol Build Finally Finished!!!!

    You'll soon have another option for bottom metal: PTG will also have their Winchester Stealth bottom metal available in July. I'd heard they were putting Near bases on the newer rifles. Any experience with Nightforce scope bases?

    FN Patrol Build Finally Finished!!!!

    Great looking build! Since it's not in your list, I assume you're using the stock bolt? How's it look for quality? I recently picked up a "new" and unfired FN PBR on Gunbroker. The barrel and receiver are beautiful. The Hogue stock and two-piece scope mounts were not, so I sold the stock...
