And a die company too.

They are cheaper by the dozen, some were passed down some financed ( really in early, early days my fee for fitting a barrel was the reamer.i think I have almost 100 now GOD I FEEL OLD

Gmac5, do you do chambering jobs for other people at this time?
Looking to get a 6 x06 ackley in the next year or so.

Only Savage rebarrels I have done are what someone would consider "normal" (6.5x55, .308)

But, I did rebarrel my AR15 in 6mm-.223

I happen to have a 6mm-06 Improved. It is probably the wierdest but also have 22-250 AI and 6mm AI, both with 1 in 8 twists.

So how do you get your Savage to handle the rimmed rounds (219 zip, 45-70, etc.?) Would love to see pics of that!

Ide really love to get a 45 acp savage going. Ive seen pics of projects on here before but it was.single shot. Ide be interested in seeing how to fit a double stack mag or maybe even single stack 1911 mag into the mag well or modify a DBM have one welded onto it. That just sounds like to much fun shooting steel at medium range!
