Savage has two thread sizes, standard and large shank. The large shank is used for the WSM cartridges. The regular (small) shank measures 1.055" by 20TPI The large shank measures 1.120" by 20TPI The small shank is the same size as a Remington 788 if that helps at all.

The Savage 110 barrels are slightly greater in diameter than the Remington 788 barrels. The Savage barrels need to have the shanks reduced slightly in diameter and then the threads chased. I have used A&B barrels from Midway to rebarrel a 788. While it wasn't really difficult work, it sure wasn't a drop-in fit. Jeff | |||
