[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 800582, member: 880"] I would not do a 338LM on a Savage action just start getting thin in the metal department and this is my opinion, I'm building the 338 Edge on a Stevens 200 action I found the complete rifle for $260 in 300WM so it'll be a pretty easy to do project and I know of several Edge rifles built on this action with good results. Granted I am going single shot if I wanted to go repeater it would take some effort to make this action work but at close to $5 a trigger pull I think the single shot will work just fine. Good thing about the Savage/Stevens type ractions is the floating bolthead not as much work as say a Rem action to get squared up! now don't get me wrong I would love a Stiller/Bat/Surgeon action but hey I'm just a little guy that gets paid by the hour with a truck payment and two houses to pay for so I kinda gotta watch the pennies and where they go :hithead: Speaking of I better get back to making some money LOL. Later, Kirk [/QUOTE]
