[QUOTE="liltank, post: 483380, member: 13275"] The Stevens short action can be put into any stock that fit the Savage short action. There are a lot of options out there. I have the Bell and Carlson Medalist A2 for my Savage short action. It's a nice stock for the money, very rigid. You would want to put a better trigger on it as well. I'm a huge Savage fan and that is a direction I would want to go for an inexpensive build. I have the tools for putting on and taking off the barrels. It's a relatively easy process. But since you have a Remington action, sinking the money in to that would be a great plan. Not sure what your money situation is like, but you could get the fully adjustable A5 Bell and Carlson from Stocky's stocks, true up the action, and rebarrel for probably around a $1000 or less depending on who does the work. Then looking into a good scope would be my next option for LR work. Anything in the 5-15 or 3.5-10 range will work. If you like Nikon's, the Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 with the side focus is a great scope. I have one and its been used hard. If you plan on going longer, then look into scopes with a minimum of 18x. Tank [/QUOTE]
