Hello friends,
I have a pre 2007 savage model 10 in .308. Left handed. I bought it used around 2008, it’s always been kind of a tack driver even with the Tupperware stock. It has the older action screw spacing of 4.27 I think, off hand. It’s not the newer 4.400”. It also has a mag box connected to the action.

I’m having trouble finding a new stock that fits the bill so for now. I’m even considering making a nice walnut stock, but for now it’d like to go thru the bedding process and learn as well as start reloading and just become a more proficient shooter.

I’m sad to see you can’t ship to the states anymore but I do have both products from over 10 years ago!! Life got busy with a couple kids, and a special needs daughter. But things have stabilized and I’d like to get back into this track before I’m too old!

Any chance it’ll still work? My thoughts are to try the stabilizer and see if it kicks off. Worst case I’ll just have a mess in a pretty shabby stock anyway.
Any recommendations for products otherwise?

All that , my first question is do I need to/ can I remove the mag box to fill the mag well with plasticine? The plasticine in the kit is still malleable. Second, if I remove that can I put in a bottom metal with detachable box mag? Inletting, but otherwise will that work? Are there any other things I need to consider for that?

Thanks

Dave
