That is correct, I want to assemble my own rifle and I'm sure that I am not alone. Which was my initial reason for the thread. To try to condense the info that isn't often talked about into one place.
The caliber decision was made some time ago. It won't be changing because someone on the net doesn't like it, thinks its pointless, or whatever. The build will be closer to "field portable precision artillery" than a "mountain rifle." Can not buy that combo from Savage, unless they've recently started offering Criterion, Shilen, or similar varmint or heavy Palma contour barrels on their box-stock .30 mag rifles?
