I just recently bought a really nice 2nd hand custom 6.5 CM on a 700 action and it was cheaper than some of the 2nd hand FC I’ve seen sell for lately. Mine also came with 2 (1 13.5 and 1 12.5 LOP) McMillan Edge stocks as well. To each their own though.
The other side of that coin is that a FC is going to retain value. A lower cost custom built by a non name builder on a Rem action even if blueprinted and with some nice parts isn’t going to command the the resale value to you or your heirs that a known higher end manufacturer or semi custom manufacture like a Cooper ect will.
