Has anyone ever used a pre fit savage barrel? I have been looking at the Shilen's barrels, but wanted to see if anyone has experience with them. Looking to rebarrel a model 12 I have to a different caliber.
thanks
Ronnie

I am looking at converting to 7mm WSM, and I didn't see that on Criterion chamber list. I did hear those were shooters for sure. Looks like Shilens has the 7mm WSM.

I don't know anything about it but I have a take-off small shank 7 MAG factory Savage barrel that I removed from a project gun. You can have it for the shipping. I also have a 300 WSM large shank.
BTW, Northland is THE distributor for Criterion. They list a 7mm SAUM chambering.

It is currently a .243, so I would also need to change the bolt head. Just figured since I don't shoot the .243 much, I would get more use out of making a light weight hunting rifle. I don't have a 7wsm so figured it would be a good all around caliber on a short action. |

Since you want to rebarrel a short action, the only bolt head that I know of for a magnum is a controlled round feed. The firing pins could also be different diameters as well as the cross pin. IMO that is a great donor for a SML build. BTW, I also have some 308 barrels.
