MHO, Remove minimal stock from the lugs.
I have a full equipped hobby shop with 2 lathes 12x36” Clausing, plus a new PM13x40 GT, 2hp fully CNC mill, and a manual mill. I’m a retired engineer who likes toys. ;-) The Lathes have Bison set true chucks with less than .0002 repeatability and I took machine shop in engineering school. I did most of the Profs lab machining, while i was an under grad, student way back. While not a Journeyman Machinist, I do have fun.
i googled for tools but did not find Savage specific tools Brownells only listed 700 Rem and Tikka iirc. Thanks for your help, ad info.
