[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 448227, member: 14435"] I don't think that the Surgeon has tollerances any tighter than the borden, it is not a tight target action, it is a field capable action from what I have seen. Personally I would get a used remington model 7, have the trigger tuned, install a say a #3 contour match grade barrel (7mm-08 possibly) and bed it in HS stock with the aluminum bedding block. The HS recoil pad is a harder piece of rubber, and if you are going to use it as a walking stick it will last much longer than the new gummy pads that everyone likes. Put on talley one piece lightweight rings/bases as they are light and tough. Personally I mounted my rifle using sling swivels and a short piece of webbing with fastex buckles on my pack straps. The butt is attached to the location where the shoulder strap hits the bottom of the pack, and the forend swivel is hooked high on my shoulder strap. The rifle hangs tight to your body, and is easily controlled. Pop two buckles and it is reay to go. No more using your rifle as a walking stick and it is still very handy. A set of $75 dollar hiking poles will save hundreds in wear on your rifle. [/QUOTE]
