[QUOTE="mmchambers06, post: 812334, member: 4445"] The actions are the same. They only difference that really effects interchangeability is the length of the actions / stocks. Pretty much everything else swaps out easily (well...except, obviously, trigger parts between pre-accutrigger models and those with it). There are 3 bolt heads...large, small, and magnum. Swapping barrels is easy if you have the right tools. If you switch calibers that have a different size that your current bolt head, no big deal. $20 gets you another bolt head. Now...since Savage switched to the new "centerfeed" last year, stock manufacturers haven't really switched over to the new spacing. [URL="http://www.combatstocks.com/Choate_TACTICAL_Stock_for_Savage_Short_ActionCenterfeed_Only.cfm"]Choate's new tactical stock [/URL]has been released for it, though. That said, I intentionally bought "old" Savages so I could use B&C stocks, which you've already seen: [attach=full]68786[/attach] [attach=full]68787[/attach] [/QUOTE]
