Savage 110 questions **updated with image of "lip" on right side of bolt**
So, i found a good deal on a Savage 110 in 22-250 (kid(s) need something to get started on deer with ;p small tx deer)
Anyway,
it's a 110, flat rear receiver, serial is F493xxx (around 1994/95?).
When did they stop making flat receivers ?
Also the bolt has a spur on the lower right side that i dont recall being present on my Stevens 200.
Is this a 110(x) (E/G/etc) walnut stock with 5 1/8'ish spacing, center feed ?
curious on the model /age as how it affects order parts/stocks.
Thanks
Knickia
**Update*** Here is a picture of the lip on the right hand side of the bolt (gas baffles ?)
Does this indicate it to be a 110(x-something) ? I have not noticed these on any of the 10/110s i have handled.

Added photo to original post of the Spur/Lip on the right side of the bolt, left side is smooth...

that keeps the bolt from opening way farther then it has to for a shorter cartridge. it is still used on the 10 series in .223
a lot of barrels also said if they were series "E" or "J" on them. nothing on yours? J started when they went to the changed screw spacing. If your is the 5"+ long action it is older then the J. not a good view of the bolt, but newer then the rifles with the old bolt head.

This rifle looks to be an original 110 from 1958-1963 or thereabouts. Does the barrel have the rear sight dovetailed into a large ring on the barrel? that would be another indicator.

What you have is a long action set-up for a short action cartridge. From 1988 to 1997 everything was made on a long action. An extended baffle was used on short cartridges to limit the bolt travel. The guide fin was added sometime in 1988. The short action 10'and 12's came out late 97-early 1998, they were still flat top rears. The round top actions came out with the Accutrigger in 2003.

No, it is all part of the the extractor and how it fits onto the bolt head.
