I'd like to havea nice .257 Roberts built and don't know which action I should use. Long or short, Remington, Winchester, Savage, Ruger... I suppose the easy way would be to buy a LH Savage and have a new barrel screwed on. What thoughts do you have on this? | ||

I am going to use a Montana 1999 action. I have been told that the Montana short action is longer than most short actions. So it should work well with the roberts. | |||

I have a LH MRC action listed in the classifieds. It has a magazine box length of 3.0" IIRC. Send me an email if you are interested, it is new in the box and CM Jkob60@msn.com Jim Kobe 10841 Oxborough Ave So Bloomington MN 55437 952.884.6031 Professional member American Custom Gunmakers Guild | |||

Take him up on it Cliff....then you can save money on shipping & just have Jim build what you need  I'd love a Bob on an MRC Rod -------------------------------- "A hunter should not choose the cal, cartridge, and bullet that will kill an animal when everything is right; rather, he should choose ones that will kill the most efficiently when everything goes wrong" Bob Hagel | |||

My MRC 1999 LH short action has a 3.1" magazine length and is perfect for the 7 Mauser sized cartridges.

Good thing Cliff's chasing that action or I'd have to. Must resist the temptation..... ______________________ Guns are like parachutes.
