I have a hankering to build a 7.62x39mm and was wondering if anyone knows of a place to buy a barrel that would fit a Savage action?
Before you ask, the reason why is.....Just because! :eagerness:

I have the same hankering. I'm thinking of using Apache Gun Works. I have a barrel on order with him now in another caliber.
Oh yeah - Check with the site sponsors too

I have the dies, would be great for subsonic. I emailed them a while ago, asking if it was .311 or .308, no response.
I also emailed them on ther 300bo barrel I did end up getting a response but it was just on the Contour exactly of the barrel I emailed back a second time and haven't seen another response. Based upon the reviews on other forums for their other Barrel conversions their customer service is spotty at bestQuote:

I have owned two Savage factory 7.62x39 barrels. Still have one in fact. They both have been super accurate, and so much fun.
Id bet dollars to donuts it is a 0.311", which is perfectly fine for shooting 0.308" pills. With the cheapest 7.62x39 barrel on my AR15 i could find was shooting 0.75moa all day long at 200 yards using 0.308 150gr nosler ballistic tips.Quote:

XCaliber will too and is a touch cheaper than PacNors option
PacNors is top notch. Ive heard Xcaliber is goos too customer service wise.Quote:

Do you have to change the bolt head? Or will a 473 work?
Should be fine. I used my 7mm-08(.473) and the SSS enhanced extractor and it works fine.Quote:

BTW I shot mine for the first time today and its amazing. Pull the trigger and do the x39. I posted a video in my build.

7.62x39 bolt actions are a ton of fun, and very deadly on deer and pigs inside 200 yards.
I had Shaw build me a 6.5 Grendel barrel a while back and it shot really well. Contour was too heavy so I sold it, but it was a very good barrel for the cost, I thought.
