[QUOTE="Westernhuntr, post: 1887147, member: 112648"] The problem with what you are wanting to do is that you'll have a bunch of money tied up in a factory action/barrel and probably won't have exactly what you want. Plus you can't chop a fluted barrel because the flutes need to end about 2" from the muzzle. With a suppressor you really want a heavier profile (.700 muzzle minimum) because hanging weight off the end of a light barrel can effect harmonics and cause accuracy issues. I'd go this route if it were me; Buy a Big Horn origin, defiance tenacity, or any other 700 footprint action in the $700-$800 range. Buy a prefit carbon fiber barrel from Oregon Mountain Rifles $675 ready to screw on, they offer a bunch of chamberings I'd recommend a SA magnum 7mm or 6.5 built on a long action. That'll put you around $1500 plus another $150 for a really good trigger and whatever the XLR costs Good luck and don't compromise you'll regret it later [/QUOTE]
