Savage Target Action screw spacing???

Does anyone know when Savage started using the 4.4" spacing on the target actions? Bought mine a few years ago and it has the 3" something spacing. Any body have a f-class or BR model serial number I can cross reference with that has the 4.4" spacing. I bought mind as an action only and have been wondering if that was the closer spaced actions.
 
I ran into the same issue:

The 4.4 spacing is for RBRP and RBLP actions!

The 3.44 is dual port actions.

I understand everything NOW is 3.44 only, RBRP, RBLP, and Dual Port actions.

Which action do you have? I really don't know when they started using 4.40
 
I am not sure of dates but the 4.4 was first. The Palma, benchrests, and dual ports started the move to 3.4".
 
I've got a dual port with the 3.4 spacing. Bought it as just an action back in fall of 2009. For some reason I thought the 4.40" spacings were after the 3.4. I guess I had it flipped around. Thanks for the info.
 
The target action was a 4.4 spacing from the start, when the Dual port actions came out they changed the spacing.
 
Are the target rifles still 4.4? How about the F-class, Palma and Precision varminter actions?
 
Savage really does a good job confusing people,lol. When i received my dual port and it was 4.4 spacing i called Jim Briggs about it and he said they had made some of the first dual ports in 4.4. I was surprised because i thought all dual ports were 3.4. Makes it hard to keep up with.
 
Makes keeping stocks ready to ship a pain in the butt.

THESE JUST WENT ON SALE, THANKS TO THIS POST!
