[QUOTE="Jonoton, post: 2493193, member: 100300"] Hi all, I am stuck deciding what to build with an accurized Model Seven action I have on the way. It has a .378 bolt face, and I kind of regret not going with a mag instead but oh well. I also have an accurized 7 in 7-08AI on the way, and am otherwise set in 6.5mm, 7mm, and 308 rifles. Also a .223 barrel for the same action as the 6.5. So I need to decide what to do with this action. I don't think I want to build a 300blk or 350 legend. There are a bunch of cheap and decent rifles in those calibers, and they run out of useful range (imo) before accuracy becomes a concern. I have more than enough .223 / 5.56 rifles as it is. But I also have a bunch of ammunition and components. 223AI is interesting. I am leaning towards a lighter weight varmint gun in .204 Ruger, 20 Practical or one of the other small caliber rounds. Any thoughts on the small diameter rounds? [/QUOTE]
