Starting my winter build project early this year and looking for input on the best lightweight action with 700 footprint in long action and magnum bolt face for the money. Barrel is a carbon wrapped 264 Win Mag and have a 22.8 oz stock already. Would normally go with a blueprinted 700 action with slab milled action, bolt fluted and bolt handle lightened but was looking at a Defiance anTi Lightweight that buckeye_optics has listed on here at 23 oz with rail. Any other good options out there? I guess it boils down to how much is about 15-18 oz worth to me to try and get around 5.4 lb or so 264 Win Mag or just get in better shape and carry a 6.4 lb or so 264 Win Mag and put the extra money into a good/lightweight scope?
