BBBBill,
Thanks for the information, I read your comments as helpful information from an informed source. That's what this forum is all about and I thank you for participating in this thread. My fickleness towards the FR 8 "utility scout" project has more to do with my inability to do more of the modifications myself, which takes some of the fun out of it. On the other hand, no matter how cheap the Savage Scout is it would not be a utility rifle built on my terms. So, I'm back on the project with renewed vigor, at least until my medication wears off or my money runs out. "Is there a gunsmith in the house?"
