Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting MOA, Gunwerks or Build?

More bang for the buck to build, especially if you can do some of the work, like glass bedding, etc. yourself. I've built several.

Here's a 26 Nosler I built from a smoke damaged 700 BDL 7RM that I got for $400. The stock was OK and I used it. I had a Shilen SS barrel fitted (I don't do that type work), fitted a Timney 510 I got on EBay, pillared, glassed and free floated the barreled action. It's a half MOA shooter with 120 gr. E-Tips/TTSX at 400 yds. Around a grand spent, not counting the scope which I already had.

A lotta gun for the buck. And, it'll hold its own with some big name guns and for a third of the cost. It may out shoot some of those; I wouldn't bet against it...
