    You can't go wrong with that action (CZ550) it has everything you need in a hunting rifle and more. :D

    "The basic commercial Mauser 98 design incorporates a one-piece bolt body with dual front locking lugs and a rear safety lug, non-rotating full length extractor, receiver mounted ejector, forged steel receiver, flat bottomed receiver with integral recoil lug, internal box magazine, steel hinged magazine floorplate, one-piece steel bottom iron and trigger guard, two position safety, left rear receiver mounted bolt release and an adjustable trigger. It offers controlled feeding, massive dual front locking lugs for plenty of strength and to minimize case stretching, and deflects escaping gas safely away from the shooter's face in the event of a blown primer or case. The loading/ejection port is large for easy single loading, but cartridges should be pressed into the magazine, not slipped directly into the chamber with any controlled feed rifle.

    Very few, if any, other bolt actions today incorporate all of these desirable features. The Winchester Model 70, itself a modified Model 98 action, was the Model 98's main challenger, but the Model 70 was discontinued in 2006. These are the actions used in the best and most expensive bespoke rifles."
