Lot of good recommendations on here. Thanks for the suggestions guys.

To change direction a little here; You all find it more cost effective to buy the components and send them to the smith or have the smith buy everything for you?

Not any bad recommendations so far. The trick is finding someone who does great work that isn't a year or more backlogged.

I have always assembled my parts and then sent them to the smith. You can take as long as you want and shop for deals or try and get the components as quick as possible to get the thing built.

Bob Green in York, PA has built the last few for me. Does great work and isn't usually out more than a few months if you have the parts. He has my 6.5x47/6.5 Creedmore build components which I expect to be back by spring.

Lots of good choices. Research a bit, call a few and see who seems to be a good fit.

i will also recommend Bob Green in york pa. he has done several rifles for me and he is also listed on the top gunsmiths on 6mmbr.com
he is reasonable in pricing easy to talk with and prompt with his work which has always been excellent for me...

Nathan Chesney is also a good person look at his web site hbrifles.com
his work is meticulous....

I always gather everything then send it to my smith.
