[QUOTE="ENGUNEER, post: 1336247, member: 69255"] Just my 2 cents, but I have assembled rifles from both Stiller and Defiance and they look, operate, and shoot great (and the Defiance is just plain beautiful). But I have also built rifles using tuned-up stock actions and they can be made to shoot just as good. As an example, I have a rifle based upon a Santa Barbara mauser action chambered for the 6.5 JRS (essentially a 6.5 Sherman) that shoots one hole groups all the time and all I did to the action was to grind in the lugs. I guess what I'm leading up to is that a good rifle will shoot well, but an aftermarket action will likely require less work to get it shooting. Nevertheless, enjoy the process of researching, planning, testing, and especially using the new rifle. [/QUOTE]
