I've been threatening to do this for 10 years. I think I found the right guy to do the work.  Thanks Chris

Are you inviting Gary down to take care of Yogi, he's been itching for a MD tag.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

I always thought a Savage 99T or 99H in 35 REM would have made an awesome deer/bear rifle

What carrier/spindle will be used? Any comments on this?? I would think the .303 should work.

35 rem cycles fine in my 300 eg and that is what was selected for the donor rifle (700K) so hopfully it will feed fine
If you lay the 300 and 35 next to eachother they have a similar shape / tapered with the should in almost the identical location. The 35 being slightly smaller in diameter. We will see on the extractor

Pretty nifty, Chris.
What make of barrel? Barrel length? Rate of twist?
