[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1480960, member: 2736"] I totally agree that a complete build could cost $2,000.00 if there were lots of stock work and special treatments to the barrel and stock to add work to the Gunsmith. I call machine work anything to do with the metal work. Barrel contouring, crowning, threading and chambering, Complete Blue print to action, And anything else that needs to be machined. $2,000.00 is about the limit for all of this work. There is other work that takes time that needs to be addressed like and Inletting the stock and floor metal and Pillar bedding that are routine, but take time and can sdd to the charges. Then you have to add the cost of all components if purchased bu the smith. All of this has to be added up for a total price. $2500 to $3500 should be about max for the complete build depending on the amount of machine Work and component cost. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
