Hi. Just joined this site to comment on this thread. Last year I got the Savage bolt action 224V bug. I ordered a 3 grove, 28 inch, PacNor. It arived on Christmas eve, earlier than I expected. UPS said they left it at the door. The next morning I found it out by the highway wraped in plastic. Anyway I took rifle and bolt face, and a new lock nut and put it in the shop. Just got it back week before last. It is awsome. Groups at 258 yards pretty constant at .5 to .6 MOA. If your interested in building Valkyie bolt action definitely just do it. I used a Savage benchrest I got in a trade. And the bolt face came from pacific tool. I also got it glass bedded while in the shop. The bolt face also had to be machined. All labor charges ran around $260.
