[QUOTE="johnlittletree, post: 1481741, member: 105653"] I really like your recommendation. I like that you give the guy options and do not try to convince him to just toss money at it to make a list and nail down pro's and con's of factory action and custom action. Sadly it is getting hard to see people that "run what they brung" or start with an action they have or can pick up affordably. Nothing is more of a turn off then seeing people convincing young folk they have to have a $5000 rifle with $3000 glass to go kill an Elk or punch holes in paper. That might be the best direction for them go in long term but if you have to take a year off from hunting and target shooting because you can not afford components to reload and parts for the new rifle at the same time maybe you need to rethink the process. Few people just go out and go from a Toyota Camry to a Porsche 911 Turbo! There are usually some steps in between as they grow their business or advance in the company etc.... It is refreshing to see someone give people options and not make them think neurotically that they have to start the race with the same gear as the people currently at the top of the pile! If you can afford to do that than by all means "Buy once cry once!". [/QUOTE]
