The savage 110, and 111 are long action rifles and either one can be converted to a 300 wm by changing the bolt head, and the barrel, and magazine. I just got done with a 111 hunter xp in 7mm rem mag, and converted to 308.
Ok. This is what I want to do. I want to convert a savage 110 or 111 to a 300 win mag. I know I need a long bolt and change the bolt face and modify the magazine well. What I want to know is if the receivers are the same. I read someone thinks they can convert a 243 to 300 win mag by changing the bolt, bolt face, and barrel. Surely that is not true.

Ok. I thought the guy was full of it. If that is the case then I will look for a good used 110 or 111 and build a good tack driver.
Thank you for the reply Russ. I'm new at this conversion bit.
