I see you haven't been keeping up at all

Go back and read Post # 35
(The first post from 2015, in a thread that started in 2012)

It was explained again in Posts #50, # 62, # 89. # 90. # 94, and # 115 and maybe some I missed

Which part of those posts didn't you understand? ;)

A better tack is to heat that brass, aluminum, or steel rod and use the hot poker to burn out the center of the wood and melt the lead out.

I doubt you'd ever get a rod hot enough for that to work since it can't be much over .25" in diameter, and won't have enough mass to retain the needed residual heat to burn wet wood or melt lead
 
I am wondering why the savage is not done yet. I would have chucked that aluminum rod in a cordless drill and adjusted the clutch to limit the torque applied and had the plug out in a few hours easy.

But then I also repaired a bolt handle in an old Remington single shot in 15 minutes last week by disassembling the bolt and center drilling and tapping in a new handle right through the bolt. I used an 1 1/2" 1/4" fine allen headed bolt and a jamb nut and locktighted the bolt and nut in place.
 
Don't you just hate it when someone hijacks an old thread and converts the issue to something else?

Sorry, I missed the switch.

What gets me is it has been 10 days since the secondary poster commented and that was their 8 post so most likely we wont get an answer.
 
I think it funny that everyone really cares this much about a Savage Barrel. If this were a heirloom collector rifle worth $10K, I could see it. But a $150(being generous) Savage barrel? :D
