I'm sure this question has been asked before but I couldn't find it in a search. Is the cheapest way to get a donor action for a build to buy a 700 ADL. I will be using some type of aftermarket magazine for the bottom metal just haven't decided which one. I would like any ideas anyone has. Also I do not have a lathe so I'll have to send it out to be trued.

As far as aftermarket bottom metals go, think about what you want first: do you want a chassis system (like the AICS) or a more traditional stock like a McMillan?
Personally, I went with the AICS and love it. Also just like EasyGravy I started with an ADL also.
Another option is to get a Manners stock with the mini chassis; kind of a mix of both worlds situation.
As far as bottom metals go though, hard to go wrong with Badger Ordnance and they can inlet your stock along with a lot of other smiths out there.
