[QUOTE="fmajor, post: 1246572, member: 20646"] IIWY, I'd buy a receiver from [URL="http://www.nwactionworks.com/actions"]these folks[/URL] (they have "trued" Rem 700 actions for ~$545.00 - an AMAZING price though will need to add a recoil lug), choose a good barrel (~$360.00 - i'd choose a Bartlein, Brux or Kreiger), a *good* 'smith/builder (~$300-$400 to chamber/thread/assemble) and a stock that captures your fancy (I like the looks of the one near the middle of this page [URL="http://www.rifle-stocks.com/Pistol_Grip_Style.htm"]"Ambidextrous ENLARGED Thumbhole"[/URL] - especially for ~$160.00). You will likely be around $1,600 depending on the stock choice which could easily push things to $2,000. So, you're at $1,600 for likely a tack-driver and all you need are optics. You could easily be under $2,000 for a complete CUSTOM rifle (IMHO it's custom) that will do what you want with aplomb. [/QUOTE]
