This is a route I have been considering lately, but had an issue with finding an existing striker or making one from a new, unassembled receiver....


I am hoping/assuming that by using a new, unassembled action, that you are "manufacturing" a pistol with what would commonly be a rifle action?


Are any of the existing new target actions matches to the Striker action? Same mounting bolt locations, etc?

Eventually I'd like to make a 300 blackout pistol with about a 10-12" barrel but I'm still weighing my options when it comes to actions.....

Thanks for any advice or pointers, in advance!

No, from the pics, I'd say he is starting with a Striker action, right port, left bolt, kind of distinctive. Always a pistol.

But you can start with an undesignated target action and make a pistol. BUT, their not available in left bolt.

thats correct its a striker. shoots very well at that. I was getting roughly 1.25" 200 yard groups with the same load as my rifle. both barrels were cut with the same reamer. i was looking forward to load development but oh well

[shaman]

I was wondering when someone would do this?

[yorketransport]

Very nice! I never thought to have XLR make a Striker stock. Good job thinking outside the box!

Gotta say that the stock is awesome as a pistol stock.... I like it!

Good thinking on your part.

the steel still needs coated. im up in the air on what product and color

[yorketransport]

I like it! I have an XLR rifle stock which has worked well for me, now I may need to look into getting one for the Striker as well.

That is awesome!!!! Very nice build.

This may be a stupid question but is the Striker action Centerfeed Stagger feed or it's own bolt spacing?

[tinkerer]

Striker action is left bolt/right port, staggerfeed, blind magazine on a 4.275" bolt spacing, the old Savage short action. 510 is CM, 516 is SS. No sights, drilled for scope base, flat rear , round front.

BTWE, I'm looking for a 510 in 308 bolt size if anyone has one?
