Maybe Ill poke around and see if I can find an old beat up 700 long action. I already have a 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser its a model 94 carbine, cocks when you push the bolt forward. Sweet shooting little sucker. Was my Grandfathers, then my Dads, now Mine

The 6.5x47 will get you around 4K of barrel life and cases usually last 15-18 firings.  The most firings I have seen is 22 from one of my team shooters.  We pull barrels at 3500 and they still shoot 1/2 moa. 

If your just using it for coyotes, a fast twist 6mm and 105s are hard to beat.  For pricing you will be around $850 for truing, chamber, and non fluted barrel.  Bedding, coating, etc is additional.
