Check out Northlander on the Savage shooters Forum. He also has good prices on barrels.

Savage website might have dealers listed. They have the actions listed.

Judging by some of the prices, it would seem to me that you're better off buying a complete rifle with the action you're looking for and replacing the barrel and stock. This way you would have a second barrel for it.

To clarify what I mean. If you're looking to make an 338-06, just buy a 30-06 savage and replace the barrel.

The actions I saw were almost 400 bucks. I bought my savage with a scope on it as well from dicks for 431 dollars after taxes. And it's a real shooter. And I can always get another barrel(s) for it too without needing to buy a stock as well.

Course my gun was on sale, but everything goes on sale sooner or later. A little patience might get you what you're looking for and then some in the end.

I have to agree or look for a used rifle. I should say pre-owned.
