[QUOTE="KB6DXN, post: 1486007, member: 56726"] Build your own rifle, buy the action and then find a good gunsmith to help you with it. You can get a precision stainless barrel blank with a 1 in 8 twist, timney trigger and a good stock. If you buy off the shelf 1 thing to know, Remington rifles you have a 50-50 chance to get a good one because they don't always mount the barrel in the action whereas the bullet goes in the same direction as the broach they use. Savage does make sure the broach and bullet travel the same direction, this does make a difference. Just because the rifle is expensive doesn't mean it is a good rifle. The last action I bought was a Defiant it cost $1,400 and the barrel was like $300.. [/QUOTE]
