[QUOTE="JPHunter, post: 882771, member: 74047"] I just heard back from my mate thats the gunsmith I'll use if I decide down the custom path and he recommends a 338 Norma Mag. what are peoples thoughts on this? He's a good mate and I know he'd only look out for me I just know nothing about em. Also here is his break down of costs for a custom build, does it seem reasonable? To me it looks fine. Remington 700 action $1050..............true it up $220..........sako extractor if you went norma mag (bigger then standard magnum bolt face an the edge is a standard magnum face) $120 for the sako extractor barrel chambered an fitted $800 flute barrel $280 flute bolt $100 stock $750 (carbon fibre one) muzzle brake fitted $300 Bedding action into stock $250 $3870 for the lot even with a big scope would be around the 4-4.3kg mark.
