For damned good factory rifles/actions, in .270Win/.338WM, the original P-64 Fwts and Alaskans, with good synthetic stocks and Talley QDs. Easy to find/buy, very accurate and reliable and simple to customize oneself.

Howa's new mini action is pretty slick. They should have put more thought into the mag box though. if some after market stuff surfaces soon, it could be King.

If I had to pick one action for the 308 family, it would be the push feed Model 70's. I like the lug, mag box, open trigger, three position safety..

It's hard to go wrong with any of the big names for the '06 family. They all have merit, but I'm still a fan of open triggers -- maybe a three position safety and a claw extractor? Remington's are nice too.

I like most everything....unless it will only accept OptiLock rings/bases.
