Tactical bolt handle sources

[Mark611]

I have an old model 12FLV 223rem I think it is, I have not shot in about 10yrs, it's a 26''HB 1&9 twist, it's pretty accurate with the 69gn Nosler CC 22.7gns of H322, @2900fps, I can put 10 shots inside of a milk jug lid @200m, the rifle is basically factory, sadly to say I'm getting ready to build it into a custom rifle in 6.5CR, if the op doesn't mind me asking a few questions in his thread I would appreciate it, I'm new to this forum, first post, can anyone tell me where I can find a Tactical bolt handle replacement for this model 12? also is the spacing in the receiver same as the newer 110 short actions? thanks.

Interesting! I have a model12FLV I believe, in .223rem, 26''HB 1&9 twist, shoots pretty good with 69gn Nosler CC with 22.7gns of H322 @2900fps, I have not shot this rifle in 10yrs, only about 1500shots down the tube, I can put all my shot into a milk jug lid @200m, sorry to say I have plans to build a custom rifle off this action to 6.5CR, :cool:

I've tried to reply to this post 2x, so if and when the mods release my posts they will be almost the same reply, new to the forum!

Anyway, I have a Model 12FLV I believe it is, in 223rem 26''HB 1&9 twist, I have not shot in 10yrs it has about 1500 shots down the tube, but I'm planning to change it to 6.5CR, lets see if this posts!

OK I have 2 posts, OP while we're on the 223rem rifles not trying to hijack your thread, but does anybody know if the 110BA bolt handle will fit a model 12? also does anybody know if the 110SA receiver stock spacing for the stock screws the same as the M12?

Yes, the bolt handle will fit. As for Action screw spacing, they are the same depending on years. Below is a full article on all Action Series screw spacing.

Thank you my friend!

Also, if you are simply looking for a larger Bolt Handle, there are several other options for bolt handles. And the aftermarket bolt handles are nicer than the factory part as well.

Dave these all work for a right handed shooter but not a southpaw like me:cool:

I’ll tell you a secret. Try doing a Google Image search for Savage 110 Bolt Handle. You’ll see all the options. Some are only available in RH, but there are still many LH options. I was simply giving a heads up in case you thought the 110BA was the only other option. But if you prefer the 110BA, go with it.

I moved your comments to a new topic since they were unrelated to the other topic. Good to see you got answers to your question. ;)

Thanks Phil,

Dave, I ended up buying the 110BA bolt handle from Gun Shack!

[Dave Hoback]

Nice! Glad you’re happy with it.

Tactical Works Inc. is showing Savage "lefty" tactical bolt handles.
Got my "lefty tactical" a few years back (It was from SSS IIRC ???) from Whidden Gun Works. Not showing them for sale anymore.
