Is the Remington Ultimate Muzzleloader worth it to buy just to use as platform for a sml conversion? It uses a 40x action that is fairly costly doesn't it. You would be able to use the stock and the trigger also. If not what other actions are used besides Rem 700s?

Carlos at Eds Gun Shop has Remington 700 stainless short actions, 308 bolt face for $399 now, ship to ffl only, probably $450 to you, get the stock you want, if you want McMiillan stock Redhawk has Rem 700 sa bdl in stock, you'll have to get bottom metal for bdl and Manners is stocked by a few dealers. If you can accept the Laminate stock or Bell and Carlson fiberglass with aluminum bedding block thats on Rem Ultimate, you'll have a switch barrel muzzleloader, for a few bucks less with a plastic case and some accessories that comes with the Ultimate, just my opinion, Ray

If you are going to use the stock and action it is your best approach to a smokeless rifle.

This is exactly what I have done. I sold off all the parts and only have the action left. I have less than $300 in the action.
