[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1677405, member: 38048"] Find the right Smith and you won't pay 5000. I don't know why some places mark up their custom rifles so much. I only charge for the work I do. It's the same price no matter what I'm working on. Here is my typical build. Action 1300 Barrel 350 Stock 500 Trigger 200 Bottom metal 200 Recoil lug 30 Screws 15 2595 in parts at retail price Labor Instal barrel 200 Glass bed 200 with pillars Finishing metal and final fitting of stock and trigger adjustments 100. I've been doing this for 30 years and I don't see where the other 1500 goes. Except in there pocket. Find someone who only charges you for actual labor. Don't pay for the custom surcharge. I'm not advertising here just advising. Shep [/QUOTE]
