deep south built my 26" 300 Norma. the 18" 300 Norma I have coming is lightly used built by lane precision rifles (my first rifle Dallas will have built). otherwise I've been very happy with the work deep south has done for me. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. fast turnaround times and great pricing especially if they're still offering the "snipers hide discount"Deep South does excellent work. Is that who built your 18" Norma? I'm waiting on my 787 action to get started on my Norma and was going to give Deep South a shot at building it for me.
