I got a left handed mini mauser action for Kendra's birthday today, I'm going to do a rifle build for her in 6x45 probably for deer/antelope. her savage is a little heavy she said after toting it around this fall. I figured it would be just the ticket, she is excited, so that's good
I love the action photos, very cool!
Ryan, have you give a 6.5 Creedmore any thought? Be great little deer/antelope cartridge.
I haven't thought about it, didn't really know much about it til I just looked it up. it looks to be a pretty awesome little round, the only problem is I'm not sure the action is long enough for it. the bolt face is .223 and so is the magazine. I thought of converting to a 6.5 grendel or 6.8 spc, but all the extra gunsmithing would be spendy. she and I talked about it last night and might just go with the .223. its legal for deer/antelope and IF she ever did decide to sell it, we could fairly easily. I need to find a good gunsmith though now
