[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2061937, member: 1951"] Hmmm...I think your budget is incredibly tight for a custom action rifle.... Action - $900 Trigger - $150 bottom metal - $200 Stock - $500 Barrel - $700 Brake - $250 If you built off a Tikka... Action, Trigger, Bottom Metal - $600 Stock - Bell and Carlson - $400 Barrel - $700 Brake - $250 As for caliber, I get that mule deer aren’t like stopping an elephant, but I like 6.5 as kind of a minimum caliber, especially at distance. Of course you should look and drool over the Sherman’s before making your final selection. I like 6.5X284, 6.5x55(60KSI), 6.5-06AI, 7mm-08, 280AI, 6.5 PRC [/QUOTE]
