My son and I are avid shooters but between the two of us we have no savage of any kind.
Plenty of CZ's, Mauser, TC's , and rem 700.
Here is the thing in a nut shell:
I want to build an 8mm RUM.
I have my eye on an 111 7 mm mag savage at a reasonable price.
I need to know IF this is a good candidate for such a build.
There based on a 404 Jeffrey's brass necked down as with the 300 RUM.
OR I could go an 8 mm rem mag that's based on a 375 H&H brass.
Mostly the only difference is a hair smaller brass and a band.
Anyone for sure know if the action is big enough for my plan ?
AND is there any 8mm barrels available ?
PLEASE let me know the guy with the 7 is very ready to sell.
I would hate to miss this.
