[QUOTE="pass-thru, post: 2737491, member: 2382"] I've been toying with the idea for a while. A few years ago I bought a higher end factory rifle. It shoots great, but the bolt action feed and eject is not as smooth as I would have thought. And even though it was "high" grade walnut, I was a bit disappointed with it when I finally got my hands on it. I researched the rifle I wanted carefully for close to a year before buying, but had to special order as they're just not stocked all over. So I never had it in hand until after I bought. I'm not altogether unhappy with my rifle, but I want a better rifle, I know that would have to come from a custom shop. I fully understand it is not a good investment. However in a cash pinch, I would want to be able liquidate it fairly easily and recover close to 80%. If you look how much most people dump into cars/trucks that are scrapped in under 10 years....I would want a good custom rifle to be passed down long after I'm gone. [/QUOTE]
