I am wanting to build a 260 Remington based on a savage Action. I have a list of Questions. Please Take it easy on a Rookie.

First, any good books on assembling and accurizing the Savage action.

Second, Please explain large and small shank to me.

Third, I don't hunt, just punch paper so I don't need a repeater action but looking at cost what are the benefits of the target action vs. the others.

Thanks and Look forward to reading and following this informative site.
