My son is considering a savage build he looking a 300 win.mag. My queston is: Do the 7mm and the 300 have the same shank size if so are they large or small?
Thank You

Almost all 300 Win Mags and 7mm Rem Mags are going to be on the small/standard shank. If the donor gun has a sporter barrel it is almost certain it is a small/shank. Again there is always the exception to the rule, so to be certain look for a noticable step/shoulder on the outside of the barrel just forward of the nut. If there is a step its a Large/Target Shank. You can also compare the nuts themselves. At the gun shop, grab a 243, 223, 308, or 22-250 with a factory sporter barrel. Those I do believe are always small shank. Look at the length of the nut on that one and compare it to the gun in question. A Large shank nut is shorter.
Hope some of that helps.
Ok will do
Thanks
