Tube gun built on a Savage ?

[Hammer]

.

Frequently see Remington and custom actions used to build tube guns, i.e., bolt action AR-15 looking rifles sometimes used for target or competition.

Has anyone used a Savage to build a tube gun ?

The problem was, it wasn't a true 'tube' gun because of the bolt-release on the side of the Savage action making it unduly difficult to make work (have to cut out a big section). Hence Eliseo went with the slightly more traditional style setup - still works pretty well, obviously.
