WTB Low wall Action or.....?

I'm looking for a functioning single shot action to build a 32 caliber target rifle.

I have a barrel, can make the stocks, just need the receiver..

It doesn't have to be pretty just a good lock up and trigger mechanism

TIA

Bob,

A low wall would not be my first choice for a 32 cal target rifle.  High wall would be better.

People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.

almost didn't recognize Jack with his hair dyed. Cool
But the advice he imparts is sound if you intend to breech seat your rifle- the highwall lends itself to seaters much better than the lovely lowwalls. The make superb plinkers, small game guns and learning young ones about single shot rifles.

Define target rifle. 200yard ASSRA competition with the usual suspect .32 cartridges, then yes the advise re: preference for a high wall is bang-on. But, for a fun-gun target rifle, for say 100 yard personal satisfaction, then a LW housing a cast bullet cartridge on the order of .32 H&R or .327 Federal shooting a somewhat heavier than normal bullet for those two would be a hoot (and mayhaps a 200 yard contender under bluebird conditions).
