My advise would be to first find a excellent gunsmith with experience and a reputation for building match grade rifles and discuss your proposed build with him. He should be willing and able to assist you in making informed decisions about your build. He may also have options or opinions on things you haven't considered.

I'm very pleased with my new build. I'm still breaking it in and working up loads, but it's shooting 120 Nosler BT's very well.

Squares are 1"

Just took this out to test loads yesterday 08/13/14.

.300 Ultra Mag 0.340" neck
Remington 700 action
Remington laminated stock from egunparts
Jewel trigger
Pacific Precision lightweight shroud and firing pin
Nightforce standard base
Nightforce high 30mm rings
Nightforce 5.5x22x56mm scope with NP-1RR reticle
Kreiger 1-10" twist barrel, three inches cylindrical then tapers to 1" at muzzle, 29 7/8's inches from face of receiver.

Greg Tannel did all the work. Completely rebuilt & trued action, bushed bolt and firing pin hole. Receiver front and rear ring cut back about 1/16" to allow for easy loading of magazine.
These aren't as pretty as some of the art shots like some of the builds in the thread, but she is dressed up and ready to fire.

and

Barrel is chambered to allow a Berger 210gr. VLD loaded to fit the magazine and just touch the rifling. It is sweet.
3150fps average with 91 grains Retumbo at ~59,000 psi.

The coils next to the printer run out to the Oehler 35p and the box with the cable running to the comp and on the barrel is the PressureTrace. I use the electrical tape to keep the movement of the cable to a minimum.

Wolves beware!
