I am looking to do a project paper puncher and I want to know what the best platform to start with would be. I want it to have a heavy target barrel and a nice smooth bolt action. I did a trigger job on my Savage 110 and I enjoyed the process and results. That being sad I will do the trigger myself and put hopefully a nice McMillan stock on it. The caliber will be either .308 or .223 (simply for ease and availability of ammunition. I also like the look of a removable magazine that can be extended past the bottom of the rifle stock. I am not that interested in using Savage since I already own one and the bolt is extrememly stiff.
Side note: Does anyone know how to lighten an extremely stiff bolt?
