Hey man, new to the forum here but have been dealing with the SoCom quite a while. I've never personally been interested in building myself a .458 bolt gun, only AR platforms. However I have seen and shot a couple and one in particular was a Savage 10 conversion. The customer had a company called TROMIX do the work and it ended up being well over 2 grand for the total build, but the end product was a sweet shooter I must admit. Anyway, I would give them a call and see if they can guide you in the right direction with your build as they've done this type of thing before. Sometimes calling specialty armorers is overlooked but can often be a great wealth of information. When I first started building ARs for myself I spent a couple hours speaking with a guy from Daniel Defense and another hour or so with a guy from Knights Armament and received a wealth of knowledge. Good luck, and show up some pics of that beast when it gets underway. That SoCom is a sledgehammer of a round; I load a 570gr for it that is a total wrecking ball.
