Hi nellie,
Welcome to the forum. You will find that the guys are probably reluctant to react to your quest, as we have a lot of the proverbial 'hit and run' posts where guys simply want something or want to sell something and never return to the forum after that. You see, we like the guys to stay and chat with us a while. Tell us your likes and dislikes in guns, rifles, calibers and whatever else you dare to have an opinion on... O0 O0 O0
So go and introduce yourself here http://jaracal.com/viewforum.php?f=126 if you want, and you will find quick responce.

O yeah, and go and check the Junkmail and guntree websites, there are some rifles on sale there all the time.
Regards,
JHN

There seems to be a hunting weekend lull on the forum. I must also add that the Lyttleton RSA action are highly sought after and not so easy to come by, but with time something should come up.

Both is standard 308Win. I have a plan with one of the actions and want to build a 260Ackley on it. You can build most calibres on the action with a little work. I have heard from 22-250 to 338Lapua. Withe the magnum calibres you wil have to open up the boltface and in some calibres the loading port. Chukudu on the forum helped to build a 338Lapua on an RSA so I know it is possable.
Sorry for the bad English, die plaasklong sukkel maar met die Brits.
