    Recommendations for Bush Pig Rifle build on BSA Monarch 22/250 donor Action

    Been offered a old abused & shot out BSA Monarch 22/250 in return for helping a old couple look after their farm over the years,action is good but exterior & stock are buggered.

    I have never had anything much to do with the caliber or BSA actions,Bolt face caliber options,magazine lengths etc , so was wondering what are options & whether anyone has used the same combo to make a dedicated Bush Pig rifle to be used mainly for hunting my favorite species Sika & White Tail in thick scrub ,Max range 250-300 mtrs.

    Looking at a building a balanced ,handy,light rifle build even when suppressed ,like my current rifles with fluted barrels so recommendations on barrels ,lengths for particular caliber recommended Stocks that will take getting knocked about in our typical Bush hunting environment,( hated my Sako 75 synthetic stocks that would scratch up just looking at them & old rattly Ramlines ) etc . Currently Run/using for here a Rem Model 7 in 284W & 7/08 (missus rifle),Rem MRSS in 06,Winchester EW in 270WSM,Sako 270 & 300 Weatherby Magnum.

    So open for suggestions,TIA
