I have almost exactly what you are contemplating. I have a Striker action with a Savage Model 12 in Ruger .204. My barrel is just under 14". This is mounted on a laminate thumb hole stock, with a right hand thumb hold. The bolt is left handed...
it is quite heavy, and I wouldn't want to lug it around chasing prairie dogs. but the weight is ok on a bench.

I have only shot factory loads at this point, but I will work up some loads on the bench, and I'll share.
