[QUOTE="matt_3479, post: 1742990, member: 23070"] So here’s the thing, a new rifle is coming my way regardless but for now it’s got to be either a budget build or a switch barrel with another rifle. In the midst of purchasing a house and getting engaged so a full build is out but don’t want factory really. I have a 6mm creed build on a Kelbly atlas tac action, manners t5 stock currently and can get a mag bolt for it for cheap, then get a barrel chambered and I’m off to the races. This set up is completely from an AI mag unless I get a new stock as well for bdl to extend the overall length. I was strongly looking at the Sherman shorts but unfortunately getting the stuff in Canada is proving to be a pain and expensive. I don’t want to be a waste doing a short action mag build that doesn’t really play out when I’m restricted to mag like 300. Wsm with 215’s or something. second option which has been bloody hard to find is a used mag face tikka in which that case I’ll be running a 270. Wsm, new barrel, and some small work plus stock.
