[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 602633, member: 13632"] Elkaholic rolls his own, I'm working that direction but the numbers don't look good for being a solution for cost but for making a LR specialty bullet at high precision making your own looks good to me. It sounds like it's going to take about $2200 to get into it, then you add components and the learning curve which will likely cost in both components and barrels and you have something along the lines of buying lathes and tooling to make your own rifles to save money, which from experience is not a money saving deal but well worth it when you or other guys drop game from distance with a rifle you built to the specs you want.
