New savage owner. I have owned many rifles over my 73 year life span and have recently purchased a model 112 .223. The rifle in question was diffinetly abused but upon careful examination I believe it lived behind the seat of someone's pickup and rarely fired. After reblueing the barrel and action and repairing the stock I finally fired a few rounds thru it. I am diffinetly surprised by the accuracy. After zeroing at 100 yds with some hand load pushing a 53 grain nosler bullet at 3100 fps, it was diffinetly submoa without bedding the action or the barrel. The stock is diffinetly the weak link of this rifle. I am a wood carver and have decided to put some time and money into this piece . I am going to carve a new stock and add a magazine well and magazine. Is their a after market magwell for this model.
