[QUOTE="blackdog, post: 1234358, member: 30105"] In terms of real world accuracy, and mostly hunting concerned, what is the average difference going to be between adding a high quality aftermarket barrel like a Bartlein to either a factory Rem 700 action, a blueprinted 700 action, or a custom action like a Defiance or maybe a Stiller? I understand fit and finish and tolerances will likely be better with options two and three, but if all the rest of the components (quality Manners stock, Jewel trigger, NF scope, etc) are all the same, will the accuracy of those options on average be considerably better, slightly better, or perhaps a crapshoot? I've got my eyes on a new .300 win mag build and trying to decide on my direction. I've got a 20+ year old Win M70 in 300wm in the safe that I could use as a donor action or do I sell to help pay for a custom action or to help pay for a Rem action simply for ease of finding compatible components? My hunting seasons haven't even started yet and I'm already thinking about new rifles for the 2017 season! It's a sickness!! :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
