Hey folks,
Okay, new to the Savage rifle. Alaskan coming on Tuesday in 338 WM and looking to swap the barrel. Want irons and 20" and a heavy contour. Looking for either a 416 Taylor or 458 WM so I want this as a real thumper. Got a great deal or otherwise would have gotten the 375 Ruger. Who is the barrel guys(vendors) here. please provide links and/or names so I can help our site sponsors.
Thanks,
Mike

Sponsors here that sell aftermarket barrels are:

-Northland Shooter Supply (factory Savage, Criterion, and Shilen barrels)
-Gunshack (Mcgowen and ER Shaw barrels)
-McGowen Outlet (obviously Mcgowen barrels)
-Apache Gunworks(whatever you want)

hopefully I didn't miss anyone. If so it wasn't intentional.

Yes, SSS also has barrels but the op asked for site sponsors. SSS is not currently a site sponsor for some reason, which is why i didnt include them in the list.

thanks guys. I have decided to keep my original Alaskan barrel and have JES rebore and rechamber to 358 Norma Mag. Can Anyone recommend a source for conversion parts from Blind Mag to DBM? I have seen folks here reference that they bought parts off of this site. In the meantime, I'll keep looking around here. Thanks - Mike

If you become a paid member, you will have access to the classifieds, if that's what you're looking for.

it may be. just wasn't sure where these sources were located. so it sounds like folks have purchased from individuals on this site, not vendors who would sell these parts.
