That one was fun to build....And it's a sweet shooter
Bet the 75's leave a little more thwack than the 22's
I'm getting itchy to reload

Good luck. That took about a month to build. It uses slightly modified pmags. Need to open the feed lips for the bolt to be able to pass thru them. A modded pmag still works in an AR so it's good. I mod any new pmag I get that way I can run them in an AR or the savage.
But the base rifle is an older savage long action in 223, it's got a 16 inch Douglas 1/9 barrel, an older 3 screw trigger that I played with, the mag is held in place with an AR magwell that I cut off a 30% lower. The magwell is epoxied into the stock and a pistol grip was added to the stock. Since it is a savage all it would take is a 300BLK barrel and screw it on.
O I wont do it, to much time and money. Im hoping they start making barrels for the mossberg one that takes ar mags. I still enjoy looking at the fruits of others labour when it comes to custom guns
It's a custom piece of shiznit...but it's mine and I had a thought and made it happen. And I think I have a total of maybe 200 in the gun itself. 85 for threading, 50 for the action, 50 for the 30% lower, and 25 for the folding mechanism. And odds and ends...maybe 250.
If I had to buy things new it would have been much higher. The barrel and action were used, the folding mechanism was used, the barrel itself was given to me, I just paid to have it threaded for the can mount.
