Hello I found a 116 in a 3006 for $309.00, it has a few scratch's on the barrel, the action is perfect, syn. stock, Stagger feed, I couldn't be happier, haven't been able to shoot it yet. I waiting for a stock on my build for another rifle so this one with tie me over. Had two people tell me they wouldn't hesitate to give 425 to 450. its not for sale.:thumb:

That is a great find. I have yet to be that lucky with that kind of a deal on a SS action.

Yes of course, complete rifles. I guess to my eyes after building Savages I look at most factory rifles as "donor actions" waiting to be rid of their factory furniture.

Thanks for the offer of the share but seeing that you're in AZ the commute would eat up the savings for me coming from Iowa. ;)
I was really just making a joke that your luck is hot right now you might wanna share your take on the winning lotto numbers, LOL.

Installed a PTG bolt head, and reset the head space, and firing pin depth, added a SSS recoil lug, a squared barrel nut, replaced the trigger with a timney, also added a Leopold 3x9x40 C.D.S, Burris two peice. bases with Burris sig. zee rings.
