Just bought this Savage 12 Benchrest in .308. I was wanting a 6mm, but they are impossible to find right now. I have sold off all my .308 reloading stuff, and wanted to play with the 6mm's.
This is my first Savage, so I am learning. I need to order a barrel nut wrench and action wrench this weekend, as well as a headspace gauge for .243.
I am guess this is a "large" shank barrel, since it is a target rifle? It has a 29" factory tube, and was only fired 8 times TOTAL.
I would like to find a .243 or 6mm barrel that is "in stock", as I don't want to wait several months for a custom. Does anyone know where you can get a large shank barrel fairly quickly?
