The 1/4 bore is is a better all around cal. than people give it credit for being. I would recomand that you consider makeing it an AI. According to the manuals it will give you a hair more velosity with alittle less powder than a .25-06 with lite bullets. Basically it`s the same but uses alittle less powder. The 87 gn. Serrias was my bullet of choice with my .257 AI. I liked the extra BC over the 75 HP`s. Out past 200 yrds. the 87`s did not blow them appart like the 75 but they stilled killed them just as dead.
I agree with you about useing the Savage action also. I just built a .22-6mm on a Savage action you the reasons you stated.
