I thought I would bring this post back up to the top. Last year I found a Remington-Lee Sporter at my local shop, the action was in very good condition and the stock was original but it needs some TLC (mainly having the checkering recut and a revarnish). The main issue is the barrel had been replaced with a military mauser barrel. I've reproduced the factory contour, as best I can, from the stock inletting and need to have a new barrel made. The most interesting feature is that it is a 7mm. I'll post pictures of the stock when I can, here is the action.

One of the most interesting things about this is that a week or so after I bought it I ran into a guy at the same shop that had same original magazines in 7mm. I was able to pick up a couple of extra magazines for a good price, talk about lightning striking.
