Well, I have nothing now. You cannot get any Savage WSM for anything near the price of a Stevens 308 family short action or a package Savage gun. I will be selling off everything but the action so the lowest price wins. I already called Shilen and they assure me that a small shake 300 WSM barrel of theirs is completely safe. Since I only want the action it makes little sense, and saves no money, to buy a donor gun a couple hundred more expensive. The larger bolt face is cheap. I just need to know if I will encounter major problems feeding from the mag.
