Best thing is to measure the outside diameter with calipers and go to Sears and spend 5-6 dollars on a some thread gauges to figure out the threads...not trying to be a smart alek, but this way you will be sure.

My .308 FCP-K has 5/8x24 thread and I think that is fairly common.

Best to do as thomae suggested. I can tell you that to the best of my knowledge Savage has only used 3 different threads on the muzzles of their factory barrels.

1/2-28tpi for 22LR, and 224 calibers
5/8-24tpi for anything larger than 224
9/16-28 tpi for their ON/OFF adjustable muzzle brakes

Measure yours to be sure, but if you have a factory barrel it should be one of those 3.

There are several threads on how to remove a factory muzzle break. I am sure if you do a search you can find them.
