    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    BINGO!! Sure is pretty. Only issue would be the Savage extractor groove. Looks like .010 to .015 empty space before you get to the back edge of the extractor. And, the extractor has to move and be able to pop over the case rim. So, the back edge of the extractor would need to be tapered to match the face of the coned portion of the bolt face and STILL be able to move in the barrel cone pocket.
    A lathe, a couple of extra Savage bolt heads to work on and a couple of beers. Should be able to come up with something? Here, hold my beer and watch this.
    Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man, that he didn't already have.

    My thought is you need the chamber reamer too. The exposed case head dimension should not be increased.
    Also after headspace is achieved the breach face could be "marked & milled for extra extractor clearance.

    Single-shot follower will solve the feeding issue.

    He calls it a "loading ramp".

    Been thinking about getting a few of the SSS single shot loading ramps, how well do they work? Any first hand experience would be greatly appreciated.
    Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.

    Only got one on a center feed action. Clean everything real good. Brake parts cleaner does the trick. Fit it, probably snug. (that'd good) Work the bolt to make sure the lugs don't hit and works smooth. I use epoxy or bedding compound to stick it in place. A piece of clear tape over it keeps it in place.
    My others are either single shot actions or fitted with Score High Followers that fit on top of the factory mag followers. A single shot action is the BOMB!!
