I think I could get by with just using a SS follower rather than a whole block off install. $10 vs. $100+ there. I THINK a buddy has a single shot 700 receiver that he was going to build a bench gun off of but the wife put the brakes on his build. Could probably trade him out of it reasonably. Lets wait and see what Hankins has to say about what I have and what he thinks will be best suited for what I want. I'm really liking the K98 thought simply because I don't think many, if any, have done it. I have so many rifles built off K98's it's kinda funny and it's an action I am highly familiar with so getting the "feel" of the rifle will be easy.
