My donor Savage action was a 7mm RM before I removed the barrel and put it in the "resource pile" of scrap metal n the barn. So long action, mag bolt face (which can be changed for about $25 if I choose - one of the things I like about the Savage floating bolt head).
My original intent was to put a match grade 6.5PRC barrel on it. A number of others make sense as well, including a .264WM and 26 or 28 Nosler. I already have rifles with high overlapping capability for those, however. One that keeps popping into my brain is to go where I have much less overlap - a .375 Ruger. Don't "need" it, but don't "need"the others, either.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
