This is a Savage bolt head: The round hole in the middle of the bolt face is the firing pin hole. The small wedge shaped piece at the bottom of the bolt face is the extractor, it goes over the rim of the cartridge and pulls it out of the chamber when you open the bolt after firing. The...

You'll have to have the bottom of the newer receiver milled for the slot that attaches the old style magazine to the receiver. It's not really practical. You need to check to be sure the ejector is operating properly. It sounds like the case is being extracted from the chamber OK but then...

Krieger says not to use Stainless Steel in extreme cold. Have you thought about Black Nitride? That will not only make it weatherproof, it'll make it scratch proof and tripple the life of the barrel. The treat the whole barrel, including the bore. Google H&M, they are in Ohio and do a nice job.

Hi guys, brand new here. I've seen this question asked and answered on a tactical forum. I hope it's OK to post a link to that thread. The way it's done is with stock bedding material stipled with a plastic bag and then the shap edged sanded off. It works extremely well. Here is the link...
