What sort of action work would it take to get a 22-250 Parker hale 98 to feed the 318.

obviously I’d get a 30-06 sized floor plate and follower.
 
In my opinion would have to compare the shape of the action feed rails & mag box to a 30/06 version, to the best of my knowledge a 243 is the same as a 30/06, but the mag box has a spacer in it that can be removed, i do not know about a 22/250 aslo the bolt stop ejector blade will need to be from a 270 win or 30/06 i think its lest of a hassle to find a 30/06 or 270 to start with. I have built a 318 WR from a 30/06 Parker Hale with just a bbl change.

You will need a 30-'06 or similar magazine box and possible do some work on that as well. The bolt face will / may need a bit of work as well. Assume you are re-barreling and not reboring.
