[QUOTE="bb204, post: 1102368, member: 10481"] You will be hard pressed to have a bare rifle come in at 8 - 8.5 lbs. with anything much bigger than a #4 or 4.5 barrel, unless you have an extra lightweight stock (Manners or McMillan with the Edge fill). Neither will be inexpensive. What I usually do is buy my own parts, myself, as they come available. That seems to spread the cost out over a longer period of time. The cost of having the rifle put together is not nearly as bad as the parts cost. Also, no mark up on the parts (don't know if this is customary or not). That's how I normally do it. YMMV bb204 [/QUOTE]
