[QUOTE="phar lap, post: 440247, member: 28016"] Firstly i want to let you know that at the moment i am window shopping and just doing research as i am not 100% sure of what i want. About 98%..lol What i am after is to design a long range rifle off the falling block action. i like this action for 3 reasons. Its short so decreases the total length of the rifle. people say they can be made to be very accurate. And lastly i want to be able to change calibers without changing the entire set up or having to buy another rifle. what i was thinking is, i wanted the first rifle to be made in 357 cheytac and have the option of going to the 50bmg sized brass. i would want a match grade barrel (not fussed on which brand yet) and a composite stock with the forend set up to have a bipod and the barrel floating. If i have the funds i would probably get a 7mm or 300 wsm barrel as well The 50bmg that you made an offer on, was it a larger action or the same size as the regular Borchardts? and thanks mate i really appreciate the effort. regards Rob [/QUOTE]
