So what i've read on this fourm is that I can take my savage model 11 22-250 and buy the barrel replacement kit for the 110 series and convert it to a 243 or 308 since they are short action? Thanks Love the fourm

Yes you can change a 22-250 to a .308 or .243. Brian Brown.

Some caliber changes require bolt or bolt head and magazine changes as well. Ie...223 to 308 family.

I think the replacement kit comes with a barrel nut wrench and go/no go guages, which you will need. If you do not already own or have access to an action wrench, I would recommend investing in one. I and alot of other folks have tried to remove a factory Savage barrel with out the action wrench, only to have to eventually break down and buy one later. It sure does make the process much easier. Good luck with your swap.
