Oink going to ask all and if you have pictures please add if you can. I want to build the ultimate elk rifle that I also hope to take to Alaska. The only decision I have made so far is the use of a Remington 700 long action. So,
1 barrel?
2. Chambering?
3. What to do to the action?
4. Stock choice
5. Metal finish?

I want it completed within a years time and any recommendations for a builder in the northwest would be appreciated. $$ don't make to much difference but I don't want to throw money away either. I want an amazing tool, not a wall hanger. Thanks in advance
