Confused on WSM conversion

Can a Stevens 7-08 be converted to a WSM repeater, is there anyone here that has done one?

I did some seaching here and on the web, and have found conflicting information, I have seen posts that state you just need to change the bolt head, I have seen posts that state you need to have a wsm bolt head machined first, and also receiver machine work done.

Is there anyone here that has completed a conversion, and could share how they did it? Or should I just throw in the towel and buy a WSM action?

Thanks,
Dano

The neat thing about Savages are that all the parts are available and readily interchangeable.

You will have to get a different magazine or bend the mag lips to accept the larger case though. Others here that shoot repreaters will help you with that detail.

You will need a Mag bolthead and a new or different firing pin assemble. Just call Lisa @ Sharp Shooters Supply and tell her what you are doing and you will get what you need for the conversion without having to give it another thought.

Great knowledgable people to deal with.
