[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 162452, member: 12"] I would not consider "building" a rifle for the 338 on either one. both could and normally need considerably tweaking and truing. By you add that gunsmith cost to the action, you can buy a Lawton 8000 or Stiller 338 Tactical and have a heck of a lot better gun. both are top of the line actions out of the box and worth what you paid when you leave the gunsmiths shop. the sako and CZ will be worth 50% and might be as good but not necesarily. if you are going to build a rifle, buy the action, stock and barrel and go from there. do not buy a rifle and then try to rebuild it IMO.
