So I finally got a chance to check out Alamo Precision Rifles last weekend. Man, they make some really nice stuff. Fit & finish on their rifles was excellent. Very friendly & knowledgeable staff. I was very impressed. I'll be saving up & getting a custom rifle built soon.

I was impressed by them as well. I'm having them build two rifles for me right now, a 7-08 and a 6.5 CM. Can't wait to see how they turn out and the hardest part is the waiting! Hopefully when those are done I will have them do another one in .243.

Haven't seen their work in person, but all the pics I've seen look amazing and the reviews are all great.

I shot one of their rifles that was built off a 700in 223. With stand one armory bulk match ammo it was well under 1 moa. Solid little shooting gun.

What extractors do they use, Remington OEM, Sako style, M-16?

They built my LH 26 Nosler and my son is having a 280-AI being built by them now. Robert builds a first class rifle. My 26 shoots sub .5 with factory ammo. Can't ask for much more than that.

Extractor will depend on which action used and likely customer requests.

Thanks. The reason I asked is because I'm hoping to have the money for a custom in six months to a year and if I get one with a Remington action I don't want a Remington extractor. I've got to admit though I've never had a problem with a Remington extractor.

I've got to admit though I've never had a problem with a Remington extractor. Not many people have, nor will. And if you do it's a simple replacement fix. Cutting slots in the bolt head/face scares me.
