Savage rifle conversion

[DynoDan1]

I have 2 Savage's, one has a detachable box magazine the other has a hinged floor plate/bottom release. I kinda hate the hinged floor plate. Is there a way to convert it to a detachable box magazine?
Should I convert it?

My A22 has a rotary mag. I hate loading it lol. Wish they made a loader for it like they have for the 10/22 mags.

The folks in our Rifle or Gunsmithing forums could tell you what needs to be changed.

I went the other way and I got stocks with no hinge florplate and shoot them single. You can definitely convert them but the bottom metal is expensive. There is also plastic bottom metal but that's just dumb imo. If your goal is to shoot a course just shift to a mdt chassis and get all the benefits.

Hmm...okay, what is an mdt chassis?

Good idea, I'll restart it there.
