Thats a reason to design what you want and have a top line smith do it for you.
Generally same or less money and a better outcome IMHO.
Well, to some degree, I agree with you.
But OTOH, sub-MOA is sub-MOA, regardless of how you get there.
I can build it myself as that's not a big deal, or pay someone to build it, but in the end, even with top-line components, & although it may perform as expected, it's still a Frankengun & trying to get the real value out of it compared to a factory gun, is difficult.
I've been mainly a buyer & not a seller, but at some point in time, that will change.
I'm working on a new gun for varminting, LR paper punching & LR club shoots & if I do it myself, I can save $200-400 depending on exactly how I do it, compared to some top line stuff, but I'll likely not recover my costs, even though I will only use top line components.
So, IMO, there is some merit in the value/price of top line factory guns.
