So the concensus so far is that I should settle on a Large ring action for the length, and as always, find as high a grade as I can.
Of the several available and affordable (under $200) surplus rifles out there today, are there any recommendations,.... perhaps a couple that are considered of decent price and strength for the money?


I have a Turkish 98 but have been told that loading the 8mm/06 or 8mm/06 AI in it may be pushing the envelope for pressure.
