[QUOTE="Ranger Rick, post: 2036882, member: 111184"] Entropy, After reading several reviews on custom gunmakers and also posts on building your own custom rifle with or without a gunsmith, I decided to order all the parts and have a gunsmith assemble my first custom rife. I bought a BigHorn action wrench and the smith used it along with his high end gun vise. Time to assemble was less than an hour, so I waited and his charge to assemble my rifle was $65. Here are the parts for my 300 PRC build: Proof Research carbon fiber Zermatt Arms pre-fit barrel for the BigHorn SR3 action (ordered from Stocky’s) Zermatt Arms BigHorn SR3 action milled specifically for a Wyatt’s PRC extended internal magazine Hawkins Precision M5 Oberndorf bottom metal (BDL style) AG Composites carbon fiber Visigoth hunting rifle stock. This order was critical. I supplied the above parts info to AG, and they built the stock with precise CNC machining. All parts fit perfectly, and no inletting was needed. I added a TriggerTech Rem 700 Special trigger, an APA Gen 3 Fat B....d muzzle brake, and a Zeiss V6 Conquest scope. I love this rifle as it is shoots sub 0.40 MOA consistently at every distance. My next custom rifle will be a 6.5 PRC hunting rifle with slight changes = a Hawkins DBM bottom metal and the APA Gen 2 Little B..d brake. A good, experienced gunsmith in your area should work fine.
