[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2695189, member: 116181"] I bought my X-Bolt during the shortages and lockdowns because I wanted another 6.5 CM since I had tons of components for it. Normally I wouldn't buy a factory rifle for exactly what you described - by the time you replace the stock, trigger, and barrel, the entire cost of the complete rifle is essentially what you paid for the action. So just buy a good action up front, do all the work to it instead. Defiance Tenacity is less than a grand, and even top-tier actions are around $1500-1800, which is less expensive than an X-Bolt Pro, CA, Waypoint or any of the fancy $2000+ factory hunting rifles that still need triggers and bedding and potentially barrels. There's nothing out of reach about building a rifle, especially if you're starting with a complete factory gun. [/QUOTE]
