[QUOTE="Rocky Mountain, post: 503291, member: 26832"] One thing that I would recommend if you are thinking of building a medium walk about 338 and want the best chance of great accuracy at long range(338-378imp,338-416imp,338 Excaliber) is to use a custom action as a bass for your new rifle. Custom actions can be heavy and the best action I believe for this is the nesika hunter M action, for its size its pritty light so keeping your build around 10-12 pounds. I used a Mcmillan stock but with there new edge tecnology to keep it light so I could still use a 30 inch barrel. The March 2.5x25 scope is also a great light weight scope for that new build, there is no compromise in performance at long range with this long range scope. The type of hunting I do a heavy rifle isn't much good but a 10 pound 338 pushing the new berger at 3100fps BC .818 is hard to beat.lightbulb [/QUOTE]
