Isn’t that a sexy looking 223

Keep an eye out for a Remington LVSS.
I can't recall seeing one since I sold mine.

I had one in the early 90's in .223
One of the most unfussy and accurate 223s I have had.

Iirc the action was a true mini 700 type and would make a good build.

All these fancy custom actions are just Rem copies anyway.

I also had one for a short time. Great wee rifle it would have been better if it stoped feed two rounds at a time.

that weight can't be accurate, my .260 Finnlight weighs 2.6kg and it's got an 800gm plastic stock & a M action

It’s a bit on the high side but it does have a tiny hole!

Long time since I had one but iirc I had the odd double feed as well but it was due in my case, to slowly cycling the action.

If people haven't learnt by now they never will.

In fact it's even easier now, just buy a Tikka Super light and fit a carbon stock job job with no maching required.
