I have a 110 Savage factory .223 from the factory. Heavy barrel. careful if you are looking for a detachable mag stock, other than a long action caliber. Action and internal mag that is attached to action should fit aftermarket stocks.????

Not sure about threads, the Savage line doesn't get a lot of love around here.

I have a 116 with the bottom bolt release I built into an ELR gun. XLR has a chassis that does the bottom bolt release very well.

I have 300wm and 7/338lapua barrels for it. I went with the CIP magazine well. Accurate makes CIP length AICS pattern mags for the 300wm.

The bottom bolt release version of the accutrigger is noticeably better than the earlier version and I stayed with it. The new one piece firing pin has noticeably less bolt lift, but it needs to be swapped if you want to do a Lapua bolt head conversion.

The guns are probably at their best with diy prefit barrels. I think it's hard to justify the cost for the final result if you go much past that. I do my own work, so it gets turned around for me. Cheaper parts to learn on.

What other info are you looking for?
