    This is not going to be easy. @ 7x64 even your caliber is old and how many folks decide oh ma I need to build / buy one of those now Truth is all we need ( we’ll probably 85 % if not more is to buy a nice late model firearm.
    Get it suppressed with a good crown ,buy a great scope and rings and then we shoot better and further than all the old crap.
    Then we learn a bit and reload for it using magical Accurate new reloading gear and it gets oh me oh my even more accurate.

    So shock me being a precision engineer/ famous gun Smith is becoming a thing of the past. The new stuff is crap. Today I could only get 10 out of 10 shots in a 50 mm square box so I must need a “gunsmith “ to fix my rifle. A side from large cal long distance we don’t need them any more

    Custom rifles that go great yep Hunters nope The gear being sold daily is mostly deer o clock. Spend 2 grand you are in the spot without the help of some one who’s going to rape you..

    For the long range shooters yes get that service. But also get ready to get raped at worse or spend heaps at best to be how much better ??? Seen plenty of new comers out shoot the “money guys “
    "This is my Flag... Ill only have the one ..
