    Am I on the right track?


    I have acquired a savage center feed short action with the top bolt release that I am planning to turn into a heavy barrel varmint rifle. I was looking at Boyds stocks and I thought I would order the model 12 CF pro varmint with bull barrel and blind mag. I was thinking that I could just order magazine box, spring and follower for a model 12FV. Will this work? I was looking at the schematics on the numrich web site and those appear to be the only pieces. Let me know your thoughts or if there may be a better way to go.

    Assuming you did not receive a magazine when you acquired the action, as you stated you will need a center feed mag box, follower and spring, and you will also need the L-clip that holds the magazine in the stock. You will also need a trigger guard if you do not have one. There are several types depending on bolt release and stock design. Boyds may have the one that fits the stock you purchase.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
