[QUOTE="CarbonBonds, post: 1256873, member: 97250"] Hello everyone, I am starting to do some research on a custom rifle. Usually, I just search the forums with the google custom search instead of making a thread that has already been discussed thoroughly, but I felt I wasn't finding the information I was looking for. If you were going to buy a custom long range rifle, who would you go to? Some background information that may or may not help. My budget will be around $5-6000 for the rifle. As for a scope, I will put a Nightforce on it. I will reload for the rifle. Primary purpose of the gun will be for antelope and deer in Nebraska and Wyoming. I want to be able to punch holes on paper at 1000 yards for practice and take medium sized game to 700 yards. So I am leaning towards a 7mm Mag, but a part of me wants a .338LM just because. (I don't want this to be a 7mag or .338 discussion directly, loads of posts on that already.) For a time frame, it'll be over a year when I can actually purchase it. If any other information would help with a recommendation, ask and I will respond accordingly. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
