[QUOTE="7mmstwuser, post: 184493, member: 9089"] [b]Thanks[/b] Thanks everyone for all the helpful feed back. I have always loved my stainless. But I am looking to build a 338 Lupua or 338 Edge. So if I get this right James Jones I would possibly be better off with a chrome moly action and a stainless barrel. Correct me if I read that wrong. I would probably get mine painted as well and use a tactical stock in a McMillian A5 or something comparable. Can stainless be painted fairly easy and how will the paint hold up? I usually baby all my guns in the field, but there is times that it still gets bumped and dinged. The rifle below is like the one that I have in mind. I can't remember where I got this picture so if someone recognizes it Sorry!! I think it may even be one that Shawn Carlock has made. I just know that I saved with what the name that it had on it and it said Adamsrifle.jpg. Sorry Again!!! But all in all this is what I think I'm looking for. Any suggestions on where to start? How easy it to get a 700 action in stainless and how expensive are they? [IMG]http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t200/rdbrya1/1ADAMSRIFLE1.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
