Since I went to the store, tough luck. And Savage does not even mention it at all. Beware. |

Here is what they say, I got if from another site:
When I called Savage I was told that it is a special edition made for cabelas. I was also told that the AccuStock will not fit the action as the recoil lugs are different.

That is fucking bullshit and false advertising! It'd be differen if they have it a visually different stock. What sucks is my buddy got a price from a local gun dealer on an FCP SR and the dealer was $30 more, but he didn't know how soon he could get one so he bought the cabelas model.

Well, after reading a 9 pg topic on this gun on another forum, my worst fear was realized. The mags are junk and constantly gum up. I can load 10 bullets in, but the problem comes from the follower or spring. When loading and ejecting, the spring often times fails to push the next round forward. Some of the tests that I ran caused the ammo to double load when the spring and follower finally give way.
Here is a typical occurrence:

I think im over reacting after reading the other forums on it. I need to hold me judgement until i actually field test this gun.
If any one has any suggestions for aftermarket stocks, please let me know. |

Accurate Mag makes OEM Savage AICS DBM. Their short action 308 AICS DBM is made to fit Savage stocks cut for Savage DBM. It's a drop-in fit. So switching out to the same bottom metal Savage used on the pre-2015 models requires very little work. I had to cut down the front action screw around a quarter of an inch. I think Accurate Mag's website says to use your factory Savage screws, but that isn't true. Luckily, they ship with new screws.
I'd say buy a 4 round Savage mag or go to AICS mags. |

All,
I found a chassis that I believe will work for this gun. Its a new production offering from KRG and is specifically designed for the Savage short action - Its the KRG 180 Alpha. |
