[QUOTE="IndianaMatt, post: 1605161, member: 103744"] Thank you all for your responses I have a couple other rifles in the safe. No need to hurry other than I WANT one. I know the Sherman will cost a bit more but I really WANT one. I grew up carrying a 25-06 and this kinda reminds me of my younger days. The purpose of this rifle is nothing more than a hunting / plinking outfit in an interesting cartridge. I am going a totally different route than most probably think. I want to build a handy lightweight gun to be used. Not a bench gun or something for competitions. I just really want one and I could build it now with some parts I have and a few to buy or I could wait, save and build something I can really like and be proud of. I normally go the now route and it has always worked. Maybe it wasn’t the prettiest or most accurate but it worked. I have a 6.5-284 I built with used and leftover parts that is a tack driver. I have $700 in the rifle optics and all. So you I know you don’t have to spend a ton to get something that works. I would just like to say that I got exactly what I wanted and I did it my way. But then I think how bad I want it NOW. It’s a struggle [/QUOTE]
