[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1062585, member: 1656"] Your budget must be spread across components + smith work. So you can build a Savage yourself and put all the money into parts, or you can skimp on parts to allocate money for smith work. I don't see how you could have a custom rifle built in that price range on a custom action, and a trued Remington approaches that. Unless you're shooting competition, frankly I have to wonder whether you really get a lot of value beyond a Savage action properly bedded into a good stock with a high quality barrel (which can be done within your price range). No reason you can't have a half MOA gun that way, which is plenty good for most hunting needs. [/QUOTE]
