[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2001201, member: 25831"] If time and budget allow, going custom is something you will not regret. I jut did my first and wish I would have spent this $$$ much earlier. I will caution you to definitely look at the cartridge you want. I did a 300 WM and now am bored with it. I went carbon barrel and stock. If details are wanted, PM me. If weight is a consideration, I think with the weight you are shaving on the barrel you are adding back with the standard stock, especially the Bell and Carlson, which are a little heavier. If going that route, maybe look at a number 4 contour and save some cash. Otherwise, go full on silly and as light as possible. I would also caution you that extreme lightweight and long range are challenging. You have to find your comfort/balance. Mine is about 9.5#. [/QUOTE]
