So I will soon have my first Savage action. I am not a new shooter, and shoot a fair amount. My draw to the Savage is that I can rebarrel it myself and not have to send it to a gunsmith. I do a fair amount of shooting (10000 rounds per year of various rifle calibers, although mostly with AR-15) so this is a big deal with me. A friend of mine has built several rifles in 6.5X47 Lapua with excellent results.

I may have jumped the gun a little bit and bought an action online. I am looking to order the barrel and other parts needed to complete the rifle, but don't actually know what I bought. I'm told this is a long action with a 30-06 bolt face. However I can't find any long action models with a port like the 12s have. Does anyone know what this is?

Does anyone know what I got? I need a barrel and stock at least so I was hoping to get input. These pictures are from the seller and I don't have my own yet.

Welcome,

It appears to me that it is a Savage target action. Check the Model 11o based rifles section and aftermarket barrels and aftermarket stocks sections for info.
