[QUOTE="JWgroups, post: 1794350, member: 111976"] Hmmm... I have four Remington rifles with one having an action that has been blue printed and trued on my 6.5 CM. My stock 5R 308 with Timmney trigger will shoot with the 6.5 (1/4" groups at 400 yards), my stock 300 WM will shoot with it. My 223 will once I get the right load developed. I have flirted with the idea of purchasing a custom action, really looked hard at the "HELL BETTY" but have just about decided against it. We all want cool things and bragging rights to say "she's custom built" but fellows I firmly believe you can take a Remington action and give it a little love and a good trigger and they will shoot all day with the customs, they just don't have the bling. Most custom actions I have read about are built off the Remington 700 foot print. We all have to satisfy those itches to upgrade our guns and make them better, it's sorta like putting custom wheels and big tires on your truck, does it really help the average Joe or does it just look cool.
