[QUOTE="specweldtom, post: 164870, member: 2580"] The prices have gone up $100-150 in the last 6 months. I don't know if they are just following the climbing Winchester prices, or if I heard right and Remington has new owners. I have always been able to find Rem donor rifles for $350-450, but not any more. I may finally be able to justify recommending custom actions now. If I have to pay $500-600 for a donor and then spend $250-300 cleaning it up, that's close enough to some of the customs to make sense. Also, I can only get about $20 for a take-off barrel and about the same for one of the Tupperware stocks; used to get $50-75 each for a barrel or a wood stock. Selling both of them was enough to cover a reamer or something. Enough whining, Tom [/QUOTE]
