[QUOTE="gjk5, post: 1569777, member: 47604"] Looking for a light, but not necessarily ultralight, 300WM. In looking at the upper end of factory and lower end of custom I am trying to decide if I build or buy. So far it seems like you can get a very nice off the shelf rifle for just under $3K and build a lower end custom for not much over. How hard is it to buy receiver, barrel, stock, bottom metal, trigger and put it together or have someone do it (and true it)? I have built a bunch of AR's but never a bolt rifle, really not sure of the pro's and con's. A nicer Fierce, Cooper, Christiansen, Bergara or a parts buy and put it together. Just wondering what vendors I should look at (or just shut up and buy an off the shelf stick). [/QUOTE]
