Hi there,

Have a look here:

http://www.wisnersinc.com/additional_info/Savage_340.htm

I have the "butter knife bolt handle" 325 at the top of the page, and its in 30-30. I bought a pair of new mags from Western Gun parts out in Edmonton, and they have lots.

Hope that helps,

w.w.w.

.270 won't fit the mag

Handy rifle, but the trigger isn't very nice IMO

The Savage 340 was chambered in 225 winchester and sold in Canada as the C.I.L. 830. Back in 1968 the local hardware store had two 830s in stock a 30-30 and a .225 Winchester. I bought the 30-30 complete with scope for just under $100.00.

The 340 has a single locking lug at the front of the bolt. The bolt handle doubles as a second locking lug att he back of the receiver.

This rifle was chambered for the following cal. ; .22 hornet , .222 Rem.
.223 Rem. & .30-30 Win. After 50 yrs. of shooting & collecting I have seen many of these rifles. in all cal. except .223 Rem. Good shooting rifle on a low budget. Clips are available @ gun shows around GTA . Good luck with it . If you can't find a clip I can help you to get one.
