I built up about a half dozen rifles on Ruger actions. They all easily exceeded my accuracy standards. Most were rebarreled with Lilja stainless barrels and then bedded by myself in McMillan stocks. I wouldnt hesitate to do it again. By the time you are finished you are close to having $2,000 into the rifle including the Lilja and McMillan, gunsmith fees, and the cost of the rifle.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
