Although it probably isn't practical, can one change a magnum bolt back to a non magnum bolt by welding and remachining or is there some reason why that couldn't be done? The reason why I ask is becasue those little Winchester Actions that they use for their WSSM rifles would make great actions for non WSSM calibers but a person would have to make the bolt work somehow. | ||

I too have looked at those WSSM bolts.....but I just shake my head and walk away. I've converted a '98 mauser bolt by adding a Savage bolt head to it for the .223 Remington. An exercise in something other than intelligence I might add. Anything can be done and that includes making an entirely new bolt.....eventually the cost thing takes over and we walk away. There might be a way to make something useful of that thing but it hasn't found it's way into my dense head. Look at the lossibility of soft soldering a ring on it. That has been done many times before on other appliocations. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

Do agood search on the Win. website and you find that theydo make a WSSM action size in .223rem (Coyote Lite Blued and stainless) Got to be easier than welding,machining,heat treat. | |||

I see that. Only problem is that the .223 Rem chambering is on a Push Feed action and I want a Controlled Feed action to make a nice .250 Savage. | |||

Any of the Winchester classic M-70 in .308 class cartridge will do the .250 Savage. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

I want that tiny action they use for the WSSM cartriges, but in controlled round feed. I wonder if Winchester would sell a nonmagnum bolt for that action. | |||

I dont want to be hunting anything on purpose with a 250 savage where I thought I would need a controlled round feed. "Science only goes so far then God takes over." | |||

I don't "need" the controlled found feed. Rather, that is just the style of action I prefer for my guns, be they mauser or winchester. | |||
