[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 1807288, member: 1951"] I’m trying not to break the bank, but I’m looking to have a hunting rifle built. It will be a Winchester 70 classic action; 2.5-3 lb trigger; 300 Sherman; 22” 2.5-3lb barrel; Talley QR rings; NECG open sights; McMillan Supergrade carbon stock with side mounted flush cups; ~20 oz FFP optic with an Xmas tree reticle. So, the stock is long lead...7 mo; the barrel is a custom order blank, thinking Krieger...6 mo(guess); I’ll need to find an action/donor rifle....3-4 mo. i would like this in my gunsmiths hands by October. i can call my gunsmith, but I gotta ask. Before you have a barreled action, how can you tell the stock maker the barrel contour? It all depends on how much is cut off the breech and the stub length. Is there a standard? Which shank will a model 70 classic in 270 Winchester or 30-06 use? [/QUOTE]
