500 AR IN SAVAGE ACTION
Hi Guys,

Is their any reason why you can't used a Savage Action for the 500 AR cartridge ?

And who has reamers that can make a barrel to fit on a Savage Action ?

This would make one heck of a bolt action pistol round.

Thanks,

Jeffosso,

I have right now a 375 H&H, 416 Taylor, 416 Rigby, 458 Lott and a 470 Capstick in a Encore pistol so I though maybe either 500 Nitro or the 500 AR. But if I choose to go 500 AR the
Encore won't handle it. And since you can get a bolt Action Savage as a pistol that is what I was thinking.
