Custom gunsmith recommendation

[FlatCreekPrecision]

I rely on the PRC LIST. Found my original superb gunsmith, Robert Gradous, here. Since his passing, looking seriously for another.

Flat Creek Precision Rifles- Tim McWhorter is the Gunsmith here!

Tim building one for me now.

West Texas Ordinance in Ackerly Texas. Clayton Carter, I've got 2 of his builds and they are pretty slick shooters.

Entropy, After reading several reviews on custom gunmakers and also posts on building your own custom rifle with or without a gunsmith, I decided to order all the parts and have a gunsmith assemble my first custom rife. I bought a BigHorn action wrench and the smith used it along with his high end gun vise. Time to assemble was less than an hour, so I waited and his charge to assemble my rifle was $65.
Here are the parts for my 300 PRC build:
Proof Research carbon fiber Zermatt Arms pre-fit barrel for the BigHorn SR3 action (ordered from Stocky's)
Zermatt Arms BigHorn SR3 action milled specifically for a Wyatt's PRC extended internal magazine
Hawkins Precision M5 Oberndorf bottom metal (BDL style)
AG Composites carbon fiber Visigoth hunting rifle stock. This order was critical. I supplied the above parts info to AG, and they built the stock with precise CNC machining. All parts fit perfectly, and no inletting was needed.
I added a TriggerTech Rem 700 Special trigger, an APA Gen 3 Fat B....d muzzle brake, and a Zeiss V6 Conquest scope. I love this rifle as it is shoots sub 0.40 MOA consistently at every distance.
My next custom rifle will be a 6.5 PRC hunting rifle with slight changes = a Hawkins DBM bottom metal and the APA Gen 2 Little B..d brake. A good, experienced gunsmith in your area should work fine. RR

Awesome rifle!

Can't find my post but Kenny Jarrett in South Carolina is known for his very accurate Beanfield rifles. Quite a character - long range shooter and he gave a great rifle cleaning demo in Reno at a Safari Club Convention - 10? years ago.

LOL - did he say - Here I am bragging on him - and due some temporary delay he was giving you the needle ?.

**** - I grew up cleaning rifles but NOTHING LIKE THAT. What pros you guys are.

I would look into IN-RUT Rifles. They have great reviews from Eastman's Hunting Journal . They guarantee 1/2" or better with factory Ammuntion. Reasonable price considering everyone else. Here's a photo.

Thanks folks. I live in NC. Local isn't that important. I will check out the ones supplied.

Living in NC you may want to contact Dan Glover of Dan's Custom Gun Service. He lives between Wake Forest and Wendell. Phone number 919-604-1651. Has built a couple of rifles for Donald Trump, Jr. He does very nice work.
