[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 951079, member: 51650"] My old school LR rig is a 30/06 on a M98 Military converted. The trigger and barrel work are the same on most bolt guns. Stock selection I am not familiar with on Rugers but you should find something. +1 on using the Ruger. As to single feed; push one down into the mag and stuff it home. I have pushed the cartridge into the chamber first and slid the bolt home by squeezing the extractor body to lever the claw over the chambered round. This works great on the M98 but I've not tried it on a Ruger. I reach my left hand under the mag and pinch the extractor body between my thumb on the off side and my index and middle finger on the extractor. It works. Savage and Remingtons are easy to modify so they are the favorites. Military Mausers and Springfields used to be the choice of actions to customize but times change. I like Ruger #1 & #3's and very few of them are ever customized. Too bad 'cause they start a good 6" shorter. Look at it this way, a Ruger #1 w/ 30" barrel is the same length as a LA bolt gun with a 24" barrel. Kinda look interesting huh? Do the Ruger! KB [/QUOTE]
