[QUOTE="6point5x284, post: 1144991, member: 66669"] No I don't regret it. I still have several "normal" rifles and some AR's, so I didn't get rid of everything. But, after shooting my custom rifle, I never shoot my "normal" rifles now with the exception of my lightweight sporter for timber, backpack hunts, etc... and that's usually just to confirm zero and for packing/hunting. I too have a Tikka T3 in .300 Win Mag as my main light gun until my Legendary Arms Works 7 Rem Mag load development is finished, and then I will sell the Tikka as well as my 6.5x284 and several optics to build another custom in 6.5 CM for a PRS match gun. If I had a nice custom long range rig, and a lightweight sporter and an AR or two, I don't think I'd need anything else with the exception of a prairie dog rig for my MT trips. Our prairie dog camp rivals even the most epic elk camps... I just use a Rem 700P in .223 for my main bolt dog gun with an AR and .17HMR as my close range dog guns. It does the job just fine. Key word is NEED. I still want lots of things that go bang! [/QUOTE]
