Action for 20 Vartarg

[sunbuilder]

I am going to build a lightweight varmint rig for calling.
What action would you choose to build a 20 vartarg on ?
Remember this is for walking varmint,calling not long range stuff. Needs to be a repeater, compact, easy to handle.

My first choice is a Sako model 461, others I am considering are:
Kimber of O. model 84
Rem. model 7
Rem. 700 short bolt
CZ model 550

Down side of Sako and Kimber of O. can't buy a donor rifle with a 20 cal barrel.

What are your thoughts?

Proposed this same question on another forum in reference to building a 223AI. I had been waiting for a Montana Rifleman mini action for a couple of years until they cancelled it. Apparently there aren't any mini actions left after Remington's purchase of the Charles Daly Mauser action line including the Charles Daly mini. Probably the most readily available action now is the Remington 700 SA. Not my first choice but certainly works well.

Thanks for reply,

I have decided to go with a Stiller Predator action. I have done a couple of rifles on Rem 700 actions, but too much effort to re-work! Stillers actions are actually a "deal"
