I have one rifle built with a Borden Alpine action - its a .243Win and I sure do like that action a lot. For building a lighter weight rig the Borden sure is nice, I think it weighs a little less than a 700, or maybe just looks it but I like it.

But like JPro said, the Templar could be nice especially on a Non-Typical. In fact I've started selling off a few rigs to do just what he suggests.
