Bolthead removal on a Savage

[Hoier]

I want to remove my ejector and I don't know how to take the bolthead off. Do I just drive out that big pin?

 

[Hoier]

Thank you. Boy that little pin is a bugger.

Why do you have to take the bolthead off to remove the ejector? All I did, was remove the little pin and out it came with the spring. Must be a different bolt than I have.

It's the same as you have I just didn't really look at it and took it apart. :

Please tell me that you took the entire bolt apart before you "pounded" out that pin? The bolt assembly screw has to come out of the back of the bolt(big allen head bolt), then the handle comes off, then the cocking ramp, then the cocking pin, then the cocking sleeve, then the firing pin. If you didn't take the bolt apart before you pounded that black pin out, you just messed up a perfectly good bolt or at least trashed the firing pin. Once it's apart the pin will fall out once you push the bolt head in to the bolt body a bit.

The top of this picture you will see what the bolt looks like once you have taken it apart. This is what it needs to look like to get the bolt head off.

Ye Gad...I hope so too!

I did, I did. Bt figured I would ask before I did.

The original objective was to remove the ejector. The bolt head does not have to come off to remove (or install) the ejector. Why over complicate stuff?

 

[Hoier]

I just didn't look at it enough but atleast now I know how they work better.
