6.5 action

[Mariner]

Don't know if this is posted in the correct place or not, but here goes. due to my company dragging their feet getting me my last sick, lame and lazy check I lost out on the polytech m14 I wanted. So I now would like to put together a long range competition rifle in 6.5 creedmore. Can anybody help me out with any ideas of what a good available action would be to start building off of. Seems like I can find all kinds of information on barrels and stocks, but not much on actions for a 6.5 creedmore. Want to start buying the parts as I can afford them so I can have a gunsmith put it together for me this coming spring.

Thanks for any advice.

DPMS makes an AR in 6.5Creedmoore. I know you probably dont want that but its there.

Thanks for the suggestion nightrunner. I am going bolt action and I guess I will look into using a remington 700 action. I believe the .308 works pretty good for the 6.5 creedmore, at least I will see what a gunsmith says about it.

Can anyone, help me? Just moved to the Nashville Area, and I am looking for 3 Gun, IDPA, High Power and Long Range Matches to shoot in? Thanks you

Hi C Simpson

Don't know that area but have seen that there is F class competition in Tullahoma. There is a gun shop in goodletsville that is a TGO approved vendor that you could talk to. I am sure they can fill you in on locations. Also post this question in the competition forum and I am sure you will get a lot of results. I shoot at ORSA in Oak Ridge, but that would be a bit of a drive for you probably.
