Savage 220A .410 Single Shot Project Gun

Post by 2Shooter »

Bought a rough Savage 220A .410 project gun without a stock for $80. Saw just the barrel on Numrick is $119, so I figured I couldn’t go wrong with everything working. Swapped the .410 barrel, and forearm on to a 20ga 220A that I have to see what it would do.
40 yards
.375 duplex load 9.5x10

Steve, that's amazing. I have several single-shots with factory fulls that deliver the mail. (Postal humor?) I don't believe the actions are scaled to the gauge so you should be able to eventually find a stock from a junker in another gauge. Have you tried on a stock from your Savage 16 to see it fits? My .410 220 B has a soft drink bottle taper from breach to barrel to center the action firing pin on the shell. The chamber walls are twice as thick as the Yildiz .410's chamber walls which is on a scaled action. Gil

That's dirty! I have a 20ga just like it with no stock.
