Small shank unless it is a WSM Striker.

Ok thanks so any small shank from any Savage rifle will fit a standard Striker
taking in fact of only using short action cal.

Use can use any of the small shanks on them, even long action cartridges.

Yup you can use Long action stuff like 30-06, 25-06, etc., but they obviously wont feed from your magazine. You also may have to pull the bolt to remove a loaded round, but fired brass will eject fine. You should be able to also use things like 7RM, 300WM, etc., but you will need to acquire a SA-Mag bolt head for those and same as above, single shot only, remove bolt to remove loaded round.

Yep on the feeding single shot I have a striker in 6.5 x 284 that to seat the bullet were I like they wont fit the magazine
I'm adding a single shot bench rest follower to it.
my next build more than likly be a Mcgrown prefit in 6br. But I'm running across a few interesting pull off barrels that I could end up using for this or another project
thanks
