My searches have come up empty so I figured I would ask for some help. Between the Remington recall and all you guys taking advantage of the Long rifle's Inc. group buy, I can't seem to find one. I too want to get in on that LRI group buy to build my first 6.5 Creedmoor. I just put an ad in the WTB section but I thought maybe you would know of some vendors that have them in stock that don't come up in a Google search. Thanks
 
Go stiller if you can afford it. Great action. I did a recent build on the predator action. I'm very pleased. They have great customer service as well.
 
Go to Dicks sporting goods or local store a buy a cheap 700 and sell stock and barrel.
Ive wait till there on sale for 499 sell barrel and stock for around 100 and u now have a new short action for 400.

I did something very similar with my build. Found a 700ADL for sale at Cabela's for only $349 and had all the work done to it as part of the group buy. Money well spent! I love it!

If you are going to add a bolt knob, pin the recoil lug and/or scope base, and install a side bolt release on top of truing a 700, the Stiller is actually the cheaper option if you don't have a spare action laying around. All that being said, there is a group buy on 700 actions right now.
 
No luck finding a cheap Remington 700. Dam recall!!! It looks like bugholes.com will be getting a call Monday, the Stillers just came back in stock. Unless others chime in on different ways to go?
