Try the facebook group Aussie gunsmithing, has a few thousand members and a lot of business owners. The main admin is Anthony George from the NT, big game rifle smith, might be worth asking him.

Hopefully it will be ready for You next year mate.
I still dont know if the 'standard' PH `98 action is long enough.
My fall back is the Sako TRG-S .300 WM that you used last.....Mr Orange!
That action handles 338 Lapua so it might have to be the donor rifle. I really want some expert advice lol.

Jesus! That will be authoritative!

Mr Orange would be the better action to build it on I think?
