PTG Fluted Bolt Body for the Savage 10TR

Got a new bolt body for the Savage 10TR. 

PTG Bolt Body Savage 10 Short Action Spiral Fluted

 














  Got this for my Savage 10TR, couldn't believe what a perfect fit it was.  It literally just dropped right in with no gun smithing, fitting or massaging whatsoever.  I read the description that it requires gun smithing, or other's comments saying best left to a gunsmith, but for my particular rifle, not true.  Found a youtube video and it helped me get it done in less than 15 minutes.

Took up the slop that was present with the factory bolt body, working the action feels smoother now.

As far as finish is concerned, it's fine the way it is.  I suppose you could polish it further, but it really isn't necessary.  Really, really happy with the PTG bolt body for the Savage 10.
