I just ordered a Cadet action from a guy named Vic Samuels in Nebraska who is converting the rimfires to centerfires. He bushes the breech block, installs a new firing pin, trues the action face, surface grinds the action walls, and polishes and details the entire action for $375.00 including the cost of the action. For an additional $75.00 you can get the action casehardened. He offers a one-week inspection period as well. I will report on the quality when it arrives.

I am using this action for a 7-30 Waters walk-about gun.

The Cadet action is a centrefire not rimfire, .310 Cadet.

Hows about providing us an address/ph# or such?An email address would be nice too.

Aloha, Mark

If it is a converted RF action, I presume it will be a BSA action from a target rifle - model 12, 15 or whatever. These have recently come on the market, and do make a nice base for a CF rifle. I have a 12/15 converted to 30-20 - a real tackdriver!

RLI - You are correct, what I should have said is cadet size action.

Address and phone number are as follows:

Vic Samuel
6303 Knntucky Road
Papillion, NE 68133
(402) 399-1346

I will post pictures and impressions when I receive the action.

Dave

That price sounds really right. I'm gonna call that guy.


Thanks,


Jordan

Could you double check Vic's phone number please? When I call the number listed above, I get an answering machine for some guy named "Frank". Please advise if the number above is not correct.


Thanks,

Jordan:

It should be (402) 339-1346, darn fat fingers anyway!
