I just bought a used, but in new condition SA Savage, I will get it out of gun jail in a little over a week.
I called Effie at Savage and ordered the bolt face, follower spring, and box mag case for a 7.62x39.
Also ordered a Boyd's Tacticool stock.
I will be ripping the gun apart soon as I get it, I will bead blast the receiver and cold blue.
I'll be buying a 28" barrel from McGowen in a 1/8 twist in a Douglas 7-W profile ... big but not to heavy.
Is there anything I've left out ?
What bases would you put on, I have one piece, but do I really need 20moa base on this gun ?
I plan on some target shooting, 400-800 yard gong shooting, that type of thing.
Next step is dies and powder ....any ideas ?
I'm making a nice functional gun, but not going to spend huge bucks on fancy stocks, custom bolts, that type of thing ... BTW, this is my first build :-)
Thanks guys.
