I'm not attached to the action I'm just cheap and I had this old .308 that didn't shoot laying around so I bought a take-off barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor and went with it. I normally single feed when I'm shooting steel or rocks but I was hoping my wife would hunt with it this fall. So feeding reliably is a must. I should have the smith fix the feeding issue if he can and off load it and buy something different. She will love that. Me buying another gun.
