New Prototype action

We are actually looking at the pricing of 3 different configs and whichever one has the best retail after all said and done we will start our first run but are still testing. One config is this round action as you see with integral rail and lug like the Surgeon 591.

Well it depends on marketing strategy. A small shop is capable of only making so many actions, so the few they make they might as well be profitable and charge as much as they can. I do believe given the US export restrictions, and Remingtons quality standards, that there exists an opportunity for a Canadian dealer willing to produce a decent product in volume for the Canadian market. Something along the lines of what Cooper is doing. You could potentially replace Remington's target/varmint/tactical line with a Canadian made product.

A Surgeon type action, BC Tactical mag kit, Robertson stock, Gaillard/McLennan barrel. Keep it simple in the beginning, .308/.260 Rem/.223/6mmBR. Keep the price under $2000 and they'd fly off the shelf. With todays CNC, Canadian suppliers, our shooting community, I believe it can be done.

rimfire?

I would suspect not, there are a few companies doing or producing some great rimfire actions out there and it would be very hard to compete in the rimfire game,

examples baity (falcon sporter and BR with 12 and 6 o'clock ignition)
stiler (his real br out later this year)
the billy meyers action (out this summer)
bordon (later this year? not sure)

all of the above will rival the custom actions that could ever be made, as the action in texas cannot be imported (turbo) and he is a little under the weather and small shop,

my thoughts sorry to off track the thread but rimfire I do not think so, at least not now, rimfire is a lot harder to make,
