[QUOTE="Smokepoles, post: 1614280, member: 79002"] Wow.. Custom is a relative term, it doesn’t define anything just means it’s specd to your liking. Dollars, part options, wanted results (looks, accuracy) etc can vary drastically by different people’s standards. A stock and trigger job on a factory rig will make a lot of people happier than they they could imagine. Here’s the but... When we’re talking new builds with custom action, bbl, stock, small parts, etc 3k can get burned up pretty quick. It’s doable no doubt but keep in mind a lot of them have more than that in parts cost before you even factor in labor, coatings, etc. All that said i have no doubt that a hell of a custom rifle can be built for 3k, I’ve been tickled pink by rifles tht cost way less than that. Half the fun of the build is picking parts anyway, doing so on a budget just makes the fun part last a little longer. Good luck and have fun with it. [/QUOTE]
