is the REM700 & Small shank SAVAGE thread size & pitch the same ?
Can I remove the shoulder & run the threads up on a R700 barrel , add a nut & use it on a Savage ?
thanks in advance for any responses'
 
You could turn the shoulder down to 1.060+ .000 -.005. Pick up the factory threads and make them longer to use a Remington threaded barrel nut.

This won't work for the OP. He wants to use a Remington barrel on a Savage. Different thread pitches.
