Savage bolts
While I hunt with a FN mauser, for a low cost F-class rifle I bought a Savage.I hear they come with their own plywood semi-inlet to practice angle grinding on.If I get a little more serious, can I swap bolt heads,from 308 to 223.


You can hunt longer with the wind at your back

Yes.....and if you really want you can put that bolt head for the 223 in a Mauser bolt as well. You'll have to modity the Mauser some but it's easy to have a Mauser single shot 223 using that savage 223 bolt head!
