The Savage Large Rifle Vari-Flame (LRVF) Kit is the answer to using those nasty 209 primers in your Savage 10 ML II. Eliminate this weak link from your Savage 10 ML II.
The new LRVF Savage Breech Plug is machined from #416 stainless steel. It accepts a Savage 10ML style vent liner. It has been properly head spaced to promote easy removal of the LRVF from the bolt face after firing. This new Savage LRVF bolt face is machined from hardened #416 stainless steel and works pert with the LRVF adapters. It functions the same as your current Savage bolt face modified to accept the larger rim of the LRVF adapter.
