[QUOTE="Brewer, post: 884957, member: 71923"] I am not sure what smiths charge for chambering and fitting to a custom action but I have a 700 action that Hart is doing (blueprint, bolt and barrel) and he charges $700 to do it all, that includes the barrel. so if you find a used 700 stainless action (.25-06 sps) for $500 (like I did) you have $1200 in it. I am having a stock bedded and a break put on as well as bolt and barrel fluting so its more money, but this is for comparison. you would know what it would cost to buy the action and then have a barrel cut for it. I cant imagine that for hunting even at 1500 yards that a custom action would make that much difference but I don't know, I have never owned one. and, I am not good enough to be as good as my gun is yet, so I have to think about that too.
