[QUOTE="tjonh2001, post: 218604, member: 8970"] here is the deal you need to find a qualified smith. pm 308 nate,shawn carlock or kirby, i personally havent had work done by shawn or kirby but there reputation is good. then figure out what stock will fit you needs.you already want to 70 action. they could probably order it for you. as far as your other parts ask your smith on there recomendations thats why you spend alittle more monwy and get the guys who have built so many long range guns. these 3 that i listed are in my opinion at the top. i just know that all the things that i have seen writted about shawn or kirby are excellant and i have 3 3/4 guns built by 308nate. find a good smith and they will make this proccess easy. remember they do this everyday. some of us have 2-3 guns built a year. most smiths build a whole lot more that that per year. as far as weight and length i shoot a 7mmwsm built by nate that weighs in at 12.8 with my nightforce. it has a 28in broughton barrel and then i had nate build a v port brake. as for now i think that is my favorite. i will be talking to shawn in the future because i want eather a 338 edge or a 338 lapua. good luck [/QUOTE]
