My 2¢... Buy a Steyr Mannlicher Pro Hunter. A great rifle that shoots as good or better than custom-made rifles. I sold two rifles and a shotgun to buy one. I have never owned any other rifles than Steyr since. Straight out of the box with any ammo... deadly accurate with impressive workmanship. The problem with custom rifles is that if you ever want to sell it, you rarely get your $$ back...

That's right about not getting anywhere hear your money back on a custom rifle. - I learned this lesson the hard way with hot-rods and Harleys.
The only fellow who might make a buck is the fellow who puts one together for a client. After that it's depreciation Baby, all the way.
