[QUOTE="Ranger Rick, post: 1910586, member: 111184"] There are several very good action companies out there. I have a Curtis Axiom cut to a Wyatt’s 6.5 PRC mag length. A friend’s 6.5PRC has a Defiance Deviant XM cut. They both action smoothly and shoot within mm’s of each other. In my 300 PRC I went with a BigHorn SR3 with a Wyatt’s extended cut magazine. And then I have a 1976 Remington 700 BDL in 7mm mag (new for $199 at a dime store), that also shoots .5MOA or better. :) My newer mountain elk rifle is a .270 Tikka T3 ss lite. I bed the actions in all my rifles, crown the muzzle and update the triggers to produce accurate, reliable rifles. There are many great actions out there. More important for accuracy is the barrel. My favorites are Proof Carbon Fiber and Bartlein 5R ss barrels. Good hunting :) [/QUOTE]
