[QUOTE="lhouston78, post: 910883, member: 23808"] I have used magnum research, christensen arms, abs, abs bettin wrapped, and now proof researchs. The reason I used them was to see what it was all about, they look cool and give you a heavier contour barrel at less weight but a #4 will shoot as good and weigh the same(ish). My 280AI is a 4.5 rock creek and weights almost the same as my 7-300 proof research. The proof is a heavier barrel than the bettin customs wrapped barrel I got. Proof is trying to make a even lighter carbon barrel smaller wrap. Jewelle is the best trigger, customs actions look cool and are worth more but a 700 will shoot as good. Its all in what you want. I went through 25+ guns changing parts before I decided there is no perfect do all gun. A good gunsmith and good parts will make a great gun. good luck on your build [/QUOTE]
