[QUOTE="joebut1985, post: 1156176, member: 78787"] Hello and good day long rang hunting forum. So I have to say that I am excited to being doing my first custom build. I have already ordered my action, Defiance deviant hunter, and am planning on building a 7mm. I am torn between doing a 7mm rem mag or a 28 nosler. Originally I was wanting something that would not burn out barrels as easy but that 28 nosler keeps calling me back. I have some time with the action to make changes, as of right now they are 5 1/2 months out. I am trying to keep the gun under/right at 8lbs without scope. Barrel selection would be a bartlein #3 set at 26 or 28" with 1:8 twist. Im planning on shooting the 195 or 180 grn berger bullets. So my question would be, do you guys or gals have any suggestions for doing a custom build. This is my first one and I really don't want to make any mistakes. Also do you have any smiths that you would recommend. I really don't trust any of the smiths where I live(have had bad experiences), so everything is going to be shipped off once I receive it. Thanks, Joe [/QUOTE]
