    model 10 to muzzleloader?


    My current Savage started life as a model 10 in 7saum. I curently switch almost everything between it being a 270wsm and a 204ruger. Is there anyway with the right parts i could also switch this to make it a .50 smokeless muzzleloader like the MLII?

    the action is machined for the breach plug removal if I am not mistaken. Wouldt that mean that the locking lugs are non existant meaning that an action would be required as well as the barrel. I have no idea if I am accurate but my thought are that the stock and the trigger may be the only thing reusable. Interesting question since they look so similar from a distance.

    Yes, you can convert your centerfire action to a smokeless muzzle loader. You just need the right parts. This place has them all.

    Look up Doug's Message Board. There is a ton of good info on smokeless ML conversions there.
