[U][B]First Off - Caliber[/B][/U] I'm not decided on the caliber, I have 3 thoughts. 300 WM, 338 RUM, or 338-378 Wby Mag. My one restriction is I dont want to have to fireform brass so any wildcats or improved versions are out. I like weatherby's and I like the weatherby cartridges but I dont like the cost of weatherby/norma brass. Is the 338-378 gonna be much gain over the 338 RUM if I do the 338 route? [B][U]Second - Components & Cost[/U][/B] [I]Action[/I] - 2 Options - Remington Action Action - $350 Accurizing Action w/PTG bolt, mini m-16 extractor, extended handle, fluted bolt - $475 - Stiller Action Predator or Tac - $950 [I]Recoil Lug[/I] - Lug & Pin/Install - $60 [I]Barrel[/I] - Brux 28" SS Barrel w/ Interupted Fluting - $400 - Install - $225 [I]Trigger[/I] - $150 [I]Stock[/I] - Bobby Hart Accublock Laminated Wood - $300 [I]Muzzle Brake[/I] - Brake and install - $250 [I]Bedding[/I] - $200 [I]Extended Box Mag[/I] - Box/Mag & Install - $450?
