Hi all,
I've been reading this forum for a quite while and always appreciate the usefully information you guys provided here. I just started building my first long-Lange rifle, well actually the only thing on the way is Borden rifle's new Alpine repeater action:
http://bordenrifles.com/Alpine_4/index.html
I initially ordered the single shot action but Jim said there will be bit wait for single-shot, so I change it to repeater, while talking to my friend he said I should wait for the single-shot as it's stronger and is better for the scope, also is easier to bed too. So I'm in bit dilemma now, to send back will certainly cost quite bit as I'm in New Zealand. My plan is build a light weight 7mm SAUM(less than 8lbs) rifle. Oh by the way, my friend also suggest to use one piece mount base, but Jim thinks at moment nobody makes them, is it possible to get one custom made? Or does it really help?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Yibai
