I don't know if they are still considering making these, but if they would offer that you can buy just parts(stock/action) I'm fairly certain I could sell a few of them. I work for a rifle barrel shop and would prefer to use one of our barrels and build it myself! I know a few people that were interested in having a bolt action 6.5 Grendel built but nobody offers an off the shelf repeater action. I would also much prefer a DBM type bottom metal. It would be even better if it could be adapted to use AR magazine because of their availability and cost.
A couple weeks ago we built one for a guy on a tikka, but we had to bush the bolt so it would properly extract the rounds!

if something like a Tikka T3, or Mossberg MVP with a magazine and a piccatiny rail, I would pay $1,200.00 for one. Must have a medium 24"-26" barrel though.
IT looks cool and everything, but no cash here for that. Thanks to the economy I have been job hunting for almost two years now, and at my age it isn't getting any easier.
Better barrel Mfg and I would be in

I would be in @ $1399.00. But would much rather have it in stainless.

I got interested in these again. Im thinking that since they have such low recoil and lightweight, maybe a larger cartridge would make sense for a mountain/sheep rifle?
Grendel will get it done, but that .284 Winchester is interesting. I always wanted one of those for some reason.
