Savage bolt action rifles now in 6mm ARC
#7
I re-barreled a savage axis to 6.8, it would feed ok, just couldn't get the range/accuracy I was looking for.
I also tried a model 10 into a 6.5 grendel but that one had feeding issues, the round would pop up too quickly. Even with the so-called 7.62x39 dbm mag.

I think they are using their current actions, they add spacers at the back or front (maybe the lug-follower?) to shorten up the throw.
The axis is a one-size action for long or short.
The new "110" is probably the short action one.

So I am very interested in how they feed. That they are offering 2 models, leads me to hope they have something figured out.
Howa's not doing anything, Ruger's not either, so this for now, is the one bolt action factory rifle in the game.
