I don't mean to be evasive...

Honestly I'm still a bit butt hurt over failing to land that farm deal, But the world must go on.

Just as a quick update about me, I've finished building/modding a new hunting rifle and have it landing shots at .5 MOA at 600 yards (for those firearm illiterate in the group, it is really really really accurate.) The wife has me playing Minecraft almost nonstop in our off hours, and yet I have found time for yet ANOTHER hobby....turns out I have the knack for writing childrens books, with my sick sense of humor and severly disturbed mind, who could have guessed!

 

I'm really trying to be more active here, but my work makes it hard with their new internet policies, they take away access to 2old2play and any video game related site, but give us access to twitter, facebook, and youtube in the name of 'productivity' (they keep using that word but I doubt they know what it means.)

How long and how much did it cost you for your custom? .300 or .308? I know its not a .338.

I was determined to make a sub-MOA gun on the cheap, so I took a Remington 770, 300 Win Mag. Cleaned up the chamber, glass bedded the barrel and replaced the scope, scope mounts, and scope rail. The rifle was $300, with $150 in improvements I did myself. Plus some basic cosmetic changes; Bipod, recoil pad, and a full gulie wrap.Then I spent about 2 hours breaking in the action, it was a bit rough when I got it, now it's pretty smooth.

for the cost to performance ratio, I don't think it can be beat.
