Guess I have too much time on my hands. Here is the beginning on a Mauser with a Savage 110 Bolt head build The Savauser. I machined the damaged Mauser bolt head off, bored the body for the Savage bolt head, all the while keeping the measurements true. I also ground the extractor rib off the body. The Savage bolt head works in the Mauser with just a wee bit of polishing. The Bolt head had to be bored for the Mauser firing pin. I intend to machine the inner ring out of the Mauser receiver as the lugs are a little longer on the Savage and this will make it perfect. I know it is a silly project but I have a damaged bolt and thought why not make it useful? It will end up in 6.5x55 I think...
FYI, Yes I am keeping the third lug
