Does Savage make DBM for older 4.275" receivers? Or did they change to 4.4" to accommodate the DBM design?

They did but it’s a completely different style with a push button mag release on the side of the stock.

'Did' is the operative word. Hens teeth I tell you.

Someone out there (can't remember who) is making Savage bottom metal that's compatible with both the 4.275" and 4.40" screw spacings. Basically you just have to flip an oval insert for the front screw one way or the other to change the spacing.

Atlasworxs does. I just installed it yesterday and I'll do a writeup once I ensure it works. I was just wondering if there were OEM parts, or if they ditched 4.275" spacing to make room for 4.40" DBM parts.

Yes, the move to the 4.40 screw spacing was to accommodate the magazine release lever on the DBM and HFP hardware.
