[QUOTE="fmajor, post: 698948, member: 20646"] I appreciate what you guys are saying and agree - to a point. To make the discussion easier, lets agree that in this we're not talking about the guy on the corner who bore-sight, does some trigger adjustment, some bedding, scope mounting and some limited accuracy improvements. I believe we're talking about the super high-end accuracy assembly package Makers. Folks like many of our Long Range Hunting site Supporters - guys like Kirby Allen, Shawn Carlock, Jim See, Mountour County (can't remember his name sorry), Nathan Dagley (Straight Shot Gunsmithing - don't think he Supports here anymore though) and some others that i apologize for overlooking - i don't mean to offend anyone. These guys are among the best of the best *anywhere* and specifically for our interests. Since these guys make their living - AKA buy their clothes, groceries, their kids clothes and everything else - from making the most accurate smoke-poles available they less inclined to be as "open and honest" as is prudent in good business development. However, i'd bet everyone one of 'em - to the last on the list, could take the same group of materials HoytFlinger was going to supply and make a tack-driver out of it. They are Masters at what they do - their reputations precede them and they have the professionalism to back-up what they say and do. If there was a material item on the list that wasn't up to snuff, i'd bet they would discuss it professionally. If that item was a "material" compromise to the build i believe they would either refuse the build, in a professional manner, and stating their reason *or* would qualify the build to function, but with less-than-normal performance assurances. What i'm trying to say is that a Professional can work under a wider variety of circumstances/materials and *still* achieve excellence. In Home Construction the equivalent saying would be, "The hammer doesn't make the house"; In photography we say, "The camera doesn't take pictures". Too bad for them and GREAT for you - sounds like you've found a Professional to do the build for you - Yahoo!!! Kudos to the Pro's and hard-knock class for the non-professional. [/QUOTE]
