How to tell if a savage rifle is large or small shank

[catbegone]

Wanting to know what shank a savage model 10 wsm barrel is

 

[pyscodog]

The barrel nut length will tell you. I think 5/8 long is a large and 7/8 is small. Think I read that somewhere.

Pretty certain there has never been a WSM savage made on a small shank.

Yup, WSM calibers are large shank, except for the first production runs. A few RUM and WSM rifles were built on the standard shank. Standard shank barrel nut is indeed 5/8 long.
