[QUOTE="Lee7588, post: 2697894, member: 123764"] Like Brcfo stated you can do your own and save some money. I also use a big horn action, but you can get other custom actions that have tight tolerances and you can order pre-fit barrels from proof research, preferred barrels, and you can order a pre-fit for gunsmiths to fit your action. Decide on your stock and trigger and you are done with minimal tools, action wrench, barrel vise, torque wrench, and a punch. The benefits of doing it this way is you will be able to order and swap out barrels yourself and have a different caliber. I use big horn actions so I can change my bolt heads to be able to go from magnum calibers to standard calibers. When I did my most recent custom I spent around $3000 w/o scope going this route. If you want to go with a gunsmith look at Flat Creek or Southern Precision (bugholes.com). With custom rifles you would benefit getting into handloading [/QUOTE]
