[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 414746, member: 12"] Trophy bonded Bear claws by federal are in 270, 280, 3006, 7mm mag, 7WSM and 300 WSM. (all $42-45 a box). save the brass, you will learn to reload!) :D Sounds like 280 or 7mm mag would be OK or even the 7WSM if you want to stay with that Browning action. However, I am a fan of the 300WSM personally. I would build what I wanted and be done with it one time and forever happy. Good custom action with lug will cost $850-900 (stiller, Tooley, etc). Money ahead and you will never regret. That is the only way to go versus reworking a factory action. Here are pics and info on the Tooley [URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f37/tooley-orion-action-pics-requested-56798/[/URL] I am picking up this weekend my 6.5x47 with a Tooley action ($850) and Stockys LR Bobby Hart stock ($300) FYI my smith was very impressed with the Stockys laminated stock that was inletted, recoil pad, and clear coated already for $200. That is very hard price to beat. I would not bother ordering it with pillars. They will never match your action and have to be redone anyway when bedding. Stock (Manners, Russo, Stocky) $200- unlimited Trigger $125 Barrel 24-26" in #4-5 contour chambering/crowning $200-250 Bedding $200 Weight 7.5 to 9 lbs finished depending on stock.
