[QUOTE="Unega Waya, post: 1526506, member: 108131"] Thanks for the advice on Proof barrels, I was unaware they made Savage prefit stuff. You have me worried now, was unaware of a possible shank issue when converting to a short mag. Please school me on this, I’m a lot less knowledgeable about it then I’d like to be. My hope was that by staying in the short action I could cut some weight and still have approximately 90+% of the capabilities of a 300 win mag. If I’m having to run a large shank however, is it convertible from a small shank or will I need a new receiver? And if yes, will I be gaining enough weight back that it would just make more sense to jump to a long action? Also, correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the tactical heavy barrel version built with a large shank? I’m not at the house where I can measure it at the moment. [/QUOTE]
