Savage 12 FTR stock swap question - 3 screw to 2...
I was asking a gentleman the other day about a Bell and Carlson Medalist and told him that I mine was the 3 screw target action and he informed me that the 2 screw stocks would work just fine (opting to not use the middle screw) as long as the spacing between the 1st and 3rd (on my stock) was the same as the spacing between the 1st and 2nd on the BandC.
Secondarily, he mentioned that I should use the "blind magazine" version (which I would agree with since mine is a single shot).
After taking all of this in, I noticed that the stock options were greatly increased by going this route. However, since I am a fairly new Savage owner, I thought I would throw this out and see what the seasoned veterans of the Savage 12 FTR's had to say.
Thank you in advance for your insight as the most important part of this question is what the real effect on accuracy this would have by going the route suggested to me above.
