[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1918628, member: 1656"] He's talking about hunting. This is obnoxious. I totally agree with the Remage option. I have built quite a few and with handloads, not a single one has failed to be consistently sub-.5MOA. You don't need a smith to get the factory barrel off, but you do need a vise, a handheld torch, a pipe wrench, heavy hammer, and willingness to trash that factory barrel. The tooling to do this will add up if you seriously intend to only do one rifle ever. But if you do several over the years it makes a lot of sense. I started with a vise made from 2X6s and threaded rod from Lowe's, it cost ~$5 and I built 6-7 rifles with it before I broke it taking off a factory barrel. Invested in a real barrel vise and have done a bunch more. [/QUOTE]
