[QUOTE="Petersen, post: 1685136, member: 8372"] I think the ability to save here and there, and build your rifles over time, any one can do it. Save some money on each component by picking them up on the online classifieds. Learn how to do your own stock and bedding work and pay gunsmith for the machining. Approaching this way you can easily build a full custom for around $2k. The setup would be comparable to what is sold for $5k-8k, sometimes more. You can take a couple of years gathering the components. I believe anyone with decent work ethic and saving can afford a couple thousand over a couple of years. The scope purchase can hurt the most as you do have to do that in one lump sum. Just have to save. Learning some skills to make side money also helps. I have used second sources of income quite a bit. [/QUOTE]
