Ok. Thanks for the help.

I will explain a little bit.

I think a Remington 700 is a good basic action. Open to other things i guess

I am wanting this gun as a do it all big game hunting rifle. Elk, deer, antelope, bear, etc. I want one round for all. Ability of shooting long range shots as well.

I like the 300 Ultra because I think it is a great round. I have researched it for awhile and have talked to alot of guys that reccomend it. I have a bunch of friends who use it and love it.

Planned on having a local gunsmith glass bed it

I have shot my buddies 300 Ultra that he built and it was sweet! I was getting the muzzle brake so that if my son or someone else wanted to use the rifle there would be less kick.

My father reloads so he would help me out with that.

I am a bowhunter. Pretty much strickly a bowhunter. But I have wanted to build a rifle for awhile. I have been saving my pennies for long time. Pretty much wanted to build a "custom" rifle to hunt big game for the rest of my life. Although I will prob bowhunt the rest of my life. haha Buy hey you can always have a gun!
