[QUOTE="kai, post: 1363175, member: 98994"] I'd like to build an accurate, long range 28 Nosler rifle for hunting and I"m seeking suggestions for components and specifications to use. I plan to have an 8 in 1 twist barrel chambered for Berger 195 grain bullets for maximum range. I have a lathe and mill and prefer to do some of the work myself. I'd like to keep the cost under $2,500. My main decision is what action or gun should I use for the base. I'd prefer a stainless action because I hunt in rainy areas. Would a Sako 75 or 85 action in the longer "V" length be adequate to handle the 28 Nosler with the Berger 195 grain bullet? Or would a custom action or another factory gun serve better as the base? I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions for components and specifications to use for my 28 Nosler build. [/QUOTE]
