What action do you think ???

[MISSED]

Interesting topic this one, I am also trying to sort out an almost exact build.
I have settled on a howa stainless action [gunsmith happy] & Maddco barrel which will be heavy probably 26".
Its the stock that I cant make up my mind on. McMillan A2 [leading contender] or
similar Manners. Boyds would be cheaper option.
Like you Mick I want a go to 6mm varmint rig. Missed 6x47 Lapua got me all excited so
will see what happens. Interesting to see what you end up with.
Cheers & I'm slack & I should post more

Yes you should and the 6x47L is a great choice

I feel a bit despondent actually you have included a Sako on your list.

Guess you mean I "havnt included Sako" on the list?

Because why would I want to destroy a Sako to rebuild it? If they came with a 26" barrel there wouldn't be this discussion hahaha

Honestly, if either Tikka or Sako had 26" barrels there wouldnt be this discussion, however . . .

Buy a Sako with a worn out barrel like this one

Give them a bit of love and you will have a rifle that will be worth more than what you paid for it.

So how much you want for one Missed?????? Yeah yeah I know they arnt for sale.

I have plenty of time, so not rushing this, if a Sako did come up in the right price range, I would be all over it like a fat kid on chocolate.
