    Semi-custom 16 LWH


    I found a great deal on a 16 LHW 7mm-08 barreled action with some extras, so I picked it up. I sent it off to Todd Bettin for a custom stock (which turned out GREAT). He bedded it, cerakoted the metal, and painted the stock. Sit's a 6#13oz with Trijicon and Talleys. Only complaint was the tang area was not bedded. I blame myself since Todd doesn't work with Savages often. He builds full customs.

    I'll try to post pics when I get home. I thought I could upload files directly.

    Many "Savage Smiths" do not bed the tang area.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    I know. That's the disappointing part, I meant to say it was not floated. But it's no big deal to just relieve the tang so it's floating.

    I don't have a hosting site. I thought I could upload directly. Shoot me a PM with an email/txt number and I'll send you some.
