[QUOTE="brguide, post: 991264, member: 72307"] I have built a few now and love them. You will need the following: 1) A prefit barrel of your choice (I like Shilen Stailess steel select match) but there are others that are just as good. Cost around 335.00 You will need to find out if your action is a small or large shank. 2) You will need a barrel nut and recoil lug about 50.00 total. Again need to know barrel shank size. 3) Stock. I like HS PSV-118 stocks they are affordable and very easy to devcon bed. But again get what you would like. Wood is usually heavier than composite. about 360.00 up to 560.00 4) you will need and action wrench (60.00) and a barrel nut wrench (30.00) 5) You can just get a go gauge but to be safe get the go and no go gauge (60.00 total) You dont have to worry about over all length of the case and bullet because the 6.5 Creedmoor will fit any magazine short or long that was won of the benifits of the Creedmoor. Make sure you know the action screw length of the action you are getting. You will easily find stocks for the 4.400 spacing. Both of mine I have put together costs around 2000.00 but of course I have a lot of pieces I wanted. On a budget you will be close. You will want a dbm action if you want it a box magazine or floor plate. Basically they are the same action just the fitted piece for the dbm and floor plate are different. [/QUOTE]
