[QUOTE="6point5x284, post: 1256927, member: 66669"] +1 for Rbros. But as stated in your price range for rifle only, you can get whoever you want to make it. Many great smiths out there. I also like Lane Precision and Piercision Rifles. I'm sure some will chime in with others. If you spec out mentally the rifle you want, some smiths are better suited for others.
