Another. Vartarg question

[bobcat93]

I've been blabbing about building a .20 var-targ repeating rifle..
I may build it out of a rem fireball action or....
Whats the general opinion on defiance Actions.
I think they have an action called (rebel )
I think its a little smaller as a rem model 7 action..
Or the same..
Any one use this combo action and caliber
Thanks

Defiance makes Model Seven length actions but their website isn't showing them to be available in a Rebel.

Maybe I have the names mixed up they offer quite a selection of actions..and they look beautiful..

I'm not sure what I want to do..ive tried to build rifles by sending them out here and there..it was just what I wanted..but needed some professional tweaking.in the end .after I spent way more then I had expected...
Then I had Kelbly's build me a rifle..my heart stopped when I seen the price..then my life flashed before my eyes when I told my wife what I did...boy I could have annealed some brass in her ears she wasn't to happy with me...but hey.
Take it from me..some times in a marriage its better to ask forgiveness then permission...
You kids Wright that one down and don't forget it..
Hahaha..
Anyway..the price was high..but the rifle ...that rifle I purchased from the artist hands of kelblys gunsmith is not a rifle at all....its a fucking delivery system..I am humbled every time I pull it to my shoulder..and thats a fact..thank you kelbly 's

So in the big picture..the price wasn't high..
Its just a simple fact accuracy take precision, precision takes very expensive machines, those machines take a professional to make them hummm...and guess what.
All that takes money

Yeah..I could maybe pick up a 4-wheeler, or go lay on a beach for a week some place..
But im most happy at the shooting bench with a very fine rifle..

You see how we did that...thanks guys..I knew I could count on you to get my covid quarantine head on straight
Now to find a couple .20 cal barrels..hahahaha..
Omg am I funny this morning..
I just talk to krieger..12 month lead time...bahahaha...perfect..gives me plenty of time to put in the over time and get some cash..I dont know if my marriage can handle another rifle build..but ill let you guys know how it turns out..

IMHO the huge actions detract from the small cartridge the Howa mini is a dandy. Only if they would make it handle the Remington triggers.

Lol, now on the other hand, I am waiting on a prechamber 20VT for a large shank Savage full bull, 26”. I should be able to see my impacts, hit or miss.

Krieger shows to have Remington Varmint Contour 20 caliber 10" and 12" twist barrels in stock.

If you wanna do a custom actioned Vartarg and do it reasonably priced i would entertain a Defiance Tenacity
