That almost looks like a tongue twister.. ;D
Here is the issue, just got me a small shank SA receiver. I also have a 24" 223 varmint profile barrel. The problem is, the barrel nut that came with the receiver will not slip over the barrel. It stops about 4" before the threads start. I know I have got to be doing something wrong, so be gentle.

Ya gotta screw the nut onto the barrel before you screw the barrel into the action...
Have you tried threading it on from the chamber end?

Nother quicky question. Where in the world can I find a SA CF 223 box magazine and follower? I got one from Midway but evidently it is for SF.
Get it straight from savage on savage parts finder. It will ask for a serial# and if your serial doesnt match the caliber you could wend up with the wrong mag.You can go to brownells and look it up and they will sell you the complete magazine.
Thanks for the laugh. :DQuote:

Just call Savage Monday and talk to Effie and tell her what you need and she will get you set up.
