I do have some good experience in reloading. So where would I go to find a competent custom shop? Where would I get my parts from? My budget is $3000 maximum for the rifle itself. Thanks guys

The Ruger Precision rifle does not come in a Left Hand I believe.

Got a few questions for you guys. I want to have a LH 6.5 Creedmor built for long range target shooting and hunting to at least 1,000 yards. I'm having a hard time making choices about barrel contour. What exactly is this? I know I want a heavy barrel, but I don't know what the different numbers...

What does it mean to having it blueprinted too?

So if I figure out the COAL for the cartridge I'd like to primarily shoot, will the gunsmith know how to adjust the throat accordingly or how will I know how deep I want the throat?

Would the remington 700 sps varmint have a heavy enough barrel for a lot of shooting? Or would I just send the action in and get a while new barrel all together?

So, I'd like to build a left hand remington 700 6.5 creedmoor custom to be guaranteed at least sub moa. I've never done this before so I'm wondering, could I just buy any caliber left hand remington 700 and have it sent in to be rebarrelled? Or it probably has to be anything bigger than 6.5 mm...

Would you guys shoot that dented case in the gun with a proper load to pop the dents back out or ditch the case?

Thank you guys. This us very helpful. I'm going to seat my bullet at least .308" and go from there until denting stops. The 210 VLD was just long enough to touch the lands in the Weatherby. I also have the 225 hornady match that is longer yet and has no problem touching lands. I wanted to get a...

Any ideas about how much a bullet needs to be seated in order to create a good seal between the case and the chamber?

I have a 30 378 weatherby mark v accumark that I am just getting into long range shooting with. I've had a hard time finding good loads for it, but finally found one: 210 vld berger bullet, 98 grains of H1000 powder , and seated my bullet 0.020 inches off the lands. MY PROBLEM is that I've had...
