Building a No.4 Mk1 T clone, mk.1* or no *?

[jonh172]

I'd use a Mk2 action if you can get one. Stronger design, better QC than most and probably better steels. And of course, trigger mounted on the receiver rather than the guard.

I originally wanted to for those very reasons and i have a beauty Savage mk1/3 in like new condition, but am reluctant to drill it.

I also want to stick with the original action if possible to keep it as 'authentic ' as I can.
