[QUOTE="Stephen Orleski, post: 2088493, member: 102453"] Ok, so, not looking to sell, just wondering if I were to sell, what wording you might like to see? I took a Rem 700 5r 300 WM, paid about 1100$ (i think gen 1, bought it in 2011, or 12). I took the action/barrel off of the original stock, can't remember what it was, and i put it in an AI AX chassis system, that I paid 1500$ for (actually had it done for me, where I bought the AX chassis). This one.. [URL]https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/stock-parts/rifle-stocks/rem-700-300-win-mag-stage-2-ax-stock-chassis-prod75318.aspx[/URL] Also added a timney 2stage drop in trigger. Anyway, it is a modified rifle for sure. And it shoots better too, maybe I shoot better with it, because I am more stable in the prone position, either way, it works for me. I do see your point though, when I see custom, i think about a rifle that is fit to a persons body, like having a rifle built to fit you exactly. I agree the word is very subjective. [/QUOTE]
