Savage Anschutz 30-06

[BC Dave]

I am almost positive the barrel and the stock were made by Anschutz. The barrel has the Anschutz antler proof mark on it. Both the action and the barrel also have Anschutz eagle proof marks. I am guessing that the savage 110 action may have been shipped to Anschutz but it seems odd that the only markings on the action are the JG Anschutz .............Germany and ModeLL 110 and the Anschutz eagle proof. As far as I can find out it may be possible Anschutz built the 110 action for about 1 year at that time. I will keep trying to find the answers.
For now I will just clean and shoot it.

I know Savage shipped a number of Model 99 and 110 actions over to Anschutz in the early 60's to have them engraved, which became the PE models offered from 1966-69. The 110 PEL (left-hand) I used to have had a date stamp for 1962 but the serial number dated to 1966. From what Bob Greenleaf told me only the first batch of the PE's were engraved in Germany, mainly due to turn around time - which accounted for the 4-year difference in the date stamp and S/N on the one I had. The remainder were engraved in Japan. Less than 500 of the engraved 110 PE's were made over the 4-year period.

What I'm wondering is if your Anschutz 110 was built off surplus actions that were shipped over to be engraved but the contract was cancelled before that was done, or if maybe in exchange for the engraving Savage provided Anschutz with a quantity of actions they could build into rifles to sell in the European market. Maybe try contacting Anschutz and see if they can provide any detailed info.
