[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 959895"] There are many "factory" actions that are suitable. All have pro's and con's. If it were me and I do this sort of thing all the time, it would be an action that can take any cartridge rim size smaller than a CheyTac. It would take a breech face with no cutouts. It would take at least a 3.75" COAL. After that it's all about your smith or self getting things straight and tight. Listed aftermarket parts are nice but with so much CNC machining just ask and you might get what you want for an unlisted action. Of course I have my preference and it is known to the regulars: Forged steel. Flat bottom. Integral recoil lug. .720 or larger bolt nose. Support for locals and a local company. [/QUOTE]
