Savage masters,
I've read until I've been confused, then thought I had a handle, now I'm just plain looking for advice from my brothers.
I'm going to build a 7mm Rem mag on a long action. What I keep getting tied in a knot over is Large shank vs. small shank receivers.
Can I build a 7mm Rem mag as I would any other rifle or do I need to find a large shank receiver? Also, if I do not need a large shank receiver, will any standard receiver except the .540 bolt face needed for the 7 mag? I'm sure there are threads on this topic but I couldnt find them.
Thanks
Put
