If you have your gunsmith true up the action and headspacing, and clean up the chamber. And have him hand-lap the bore on your factory barrel, you will have a much better chance of accuracy than if you shot it right out of the box, for only about $150-200 worth of work.
And if that barrel doesn't shoot, then you have already done steps 1-3 (true action, bed action, float barrel) towards a custom build, and all that's left is to thread and chamber a blank.
This is an excellent tip...I was just relaying to the original OP what most would probably say for out of the box accuracy with no mods. I think all these brands are great and will mostly shoot great out of the box.
