Re: Lug engagement
Savages are null and void from discussion about any other "better" rifles due to their cheap cost and ease to work on.
Anybody who shoots a factory Savage in a match and does well is cheating !! LOL
I personaly have blueprinted a few Savage actions , squaring off the lug inside in relation to bolt bore along with action face and threads , then trued the bolt head , making the lugs and bolt face square with eachother. The rifle shot very well , in the .2" but it was in 6mmBR and the previous cal was 308 and it shot sub .5"
