[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1283369, member: 12"] You can do that if you take time and source your own parts by watching for deals on the next here, snipershide, 24 hour campfire , AR15.com and accurate shooter. You can save a good bit by just watching for the deals on someone moving the items and wants money. I would not bother with a remington action and waste money truing it up adding the bolt knob etc. Just buy the custom and be happy. You will not save money and more importantly you will not be happy in the long run with trued remington. Custom action- $750-1200 Barrel- Brux or Bartlein $300-340 Trigger- Timney or Rifle Basics $150 Stock- $200-700 depending on what you want $200 Stockys tactical to $700 Manners 20 MOA base and rings -EGW $150-175 No need for $400 rings and bases Used Rem bottom metal and add wyatts extended mag box- $100 or PTG add another $25-50 depending Misc parts/work such as action screws, lugs etc -$100 I personally like to order my own reamer to my specs. Saves money later if you rechamber or rebarrel as dies should fit and you can always sell it. Cost $150 I have use Bostrom Gunsmithing in Florida for last two builds. Call and talk to Eric. I sent all my parts and completed rifle was back at my door in 3 weeks from day I sent the parts. I had to wait once for a month before sending it as they were back up and cost for each was around $650 for shipping, insurance, chambering, bedding and muzzle threading etc. Top notch smith for LR competition and hunting rifles. Lot of times you can find a real deal on a finished rifle. Take this one for example, right at your price. Plus you can post WTB ads here and elsewhere for actions barrels stocks etc and you will get numerous offers.
