Bottom Metal

[Savage170]

Does Savage have any model 10/110 series rifles with aluminum bottom metal?

TIA

Don't quote me on this, but I'm thinking all the metal ones are cast or MIM. The new AICS-style bottom metal on the 110 Tactical's and 110 Scout looks to be machined billet aluminum based on the one I have here. It's non-magnetic, I know that. Don't have a standard DBM or HFP bottom metal to check with a magnet for ya.

I built a few hunting rifles on 12 actions, all my bottom metal is steel, I am looking to lighten them up.
