its a long action centerfeed (mag stays in the stock). Im fine with converting it to a single shot if that makes more choices for stocks to.

as for caliber I am interested in 6.5/300wsm. I like that its different but not so different that I cant buy dies or find brass. Im open to other chamberings as well but I have to be able to get dies for it and either be 6.5 or 7mm since there is the outside chance I might hunt with it in the future
