[QUOTE="liltank, post: 371300, member: 13275"] If you want a repeater, you will have to get there Savage LA with either DBM or internal box mag. If you want a single shot, you can use the target action for long action cartridges. Midway sells a 6.5x47 Shilen match barrel already threaded to fit a Savage action. I would buy that and have it reamed to what ever caliber you choose for your 6.5 cal. Buy a Choate or Bell and Carlson stock. You should be able to keep it right at or a little below $1200. The assembly and reaming are going to be the expensive portion of the build. Now if you think you can assemble on your own, look at buying a barrel nut wrench, barrel vise, and head spacing gauge. With that equipment you could put it together your self. Just remember, the more specialized the caliber, the more money to get started. The 6.5x284 or 264 Win Mag may be a good compromise.
